Good work. I've thinking about getting a replacement cam. Was looking at crow cams they are the only one with a logical name in regards to size/spec. Now I can compare other brands.

nice stuff. new to these motor coming from a LS back ground and notice duration is near all the same #. Would you not have a 4-8 point difference in duration to help boost and the exhaust side, and also a tight LSA to scavenge better, and seal the cylinder? sorry if it sounds silly, just strange compared to V8 camming options. cheers

With the wider LSA youd end up with more power over a wider rev range, and would definitly spool a turbo better. cheers darren
