Very nice mate. Are you after the cam specs for the GT production race car, if not im confused. Chris has some of his own cams as does Herrods but i doubt they will be willing to post their details like you have.

Mmmmm XRQTOR your right and I fully understand why they don't and will not post there specs, but the only problem is I want the best for my GT and real soon I will be putting cams in my GT but first I wana know exactly what type of cams are going into my car and to satisfy in my mind that they will be OK for the street and the trashing I give it on the race track.

The last thing I wana do is put a set of cam's In my car that will cause damage or excessive fuel consumption or non drivabillity. So far the only two cam's which I have seen work are the GT production cam's which work well on the race track with slight rough idle (I have not seen any dyno graphs tho), and chris's cam's which have shown excellent results, power gains and with smooth idle (304kw with a uni chip).

I have a good understand of the fundamentals of camshafts and Im just protecting myself. The other factor is the $dollars and the Installation agreement depending on the Party doing the job. Im looking for a cam product that I can use unrestricted in my GT at an affordable price. What shits me about this topic is all the politics between parties which im not interested in.
