My car has a custom cam in it and I have no idea what the specs are. I would like to find out and don't mind pulling the cam to send it out somewhere. Does anyone know of a company that offers this service? any idea on cost?

I found this website. Has anyone used his services? does that seem reasonable as far as pricing goes?

Why do you want to know?

What are you going to do with the specs?


Never heard of the link you provided...

If you contact one of the custom cam guys that browse this site such as Jay Allen or Ed Curtis, you may be able to have one of them run a cam doctor service on it to tell you what all the specs are.

www.camshaftinnovations.com
www.flowtechinduction.com

Or maybe a local performace shop in your area offers this service.

Yep - Cam Dr will do it. You can also put a degree wheel on it and figure out some of the main timing events but it won't tell you anything about ramp rates etc

thanks for the replies everyone.

since the motor was built, I have changed my plans for the car. if I can realize significant power or drivability gains for a couple hundred dollars, i'm all over it.

i'll look into the above links.

thanks
