They were in the same ballpark as I was so I'm happy. We will see if we were right.
Maybe you specified on the sheet you wanted something more agressive than I did? Or maybe they were so covered up that they didnt' give a whole lot of thought to one of ours? No, honestly, I would have probably chosen something similar if I had a 4.8 still and going turbo. I would have chosen more cam to help the little motor out and given away some low end. With the 6.0 I was leaning concervative due to I was going to make plenty of power anyway so why not make it really mild mannered.

You can tell anyone you want your cam specs from EDC but like Beau told me the email he got from EDC said why tell everyone what you are running when you paid good money for it. It is true. You pay the extra for a custom spec cam shaft then blurt it out to everyone they go get comp to grind it for 300 bucks and you get the shaft cause everyone copies you. I realize he has different lobes but Im sure comp could come close enough to satisfy. IMO from what I have been reading on tech Cammotion has grown too large too quick and are shooting cams out like you jack off Mark and arent really giving the amount of thought into the cam specs they should. We will see what he says when he emails me back. I want the best I can get this time around and an off-the-shelf cam isnt going to work for me.

Maybe he doesn't have many more tho and he just threw his entire archive at me.

I'm sure Ed knows what he is doing. I have no reason to doubt the man....You all know that I have to ride Cody's *** any chance I get
An off the shelf cam is the perfect cam if it is what you want and need. Custom ground cams aren't necessarily better. People, in most cases like to have that warm and fuzzy, "mine is special" feeling. The way I look at it I spec'd my own cam so
there! I have the biggest head of them all!
