I need a custom cam for my 347 build. Jay Allen is my first choice but is out with medical issues. Anyone have a great experience with another custom cam grinder that you could recommend?

Hands down Ed Curtis. Pm me for his number. Just google him to see his reputation precedes.

Ed Curtis is probably my 2nd choice behind Jay...did he create a custom cam for you? What was your combo?

He certainly did! I have the stock short block with H/C/I and a vortech spewing out 13 lbs of altered atmosphere. I know several guys local who have run his cams and attained the best driveability as well as power. I can also attest to this. I constantly read about him in the Mustang publications as well.

Ed did my custom cam as well. I can defiantly vouch for good power and better than expected drivability. Check out my build thread for details.

i can only speak from my experience. i sent in a custom cam card to fti. i never heard back besides the automated email.

my spec card was fully filled out with accurate contact info, ect. just never heard back. i even went as far as to reply to the automated email 3 weeks later. zero response.

it's made me say forget a custom cam for some time now. especially with jay allens health stuff going on too.

John I paid him an extra 20 spot when I bought mine to ignore you. Looks like it worked

Thanks for the input. Those of you with Ed Curtis cams, did you meet or exceed your power goals?
