    Lift, duration specs plz.
    Also, how are they manufactured, including what kind of surface treatment/hardening procedures have they undergone.

    Fine, dont click on the picture which takes you to the link and gives you the specs....

    Intake .390" Total Lift 215.8 @ .050 Duration, Exhaust .354" Total Lift 204.2 @ .050 Duration.

    The camshafts are induction heat treated with a rockwell c hardness of 50-60. We had the hardness verified by an independant lab. There is break in coating on the lobes we well to keep it easy.

    7 months, 2 cars and I will have to chase down the engineers to get mileage information.

    I clicked the pic. It didn't take me anywhere. 50-60Rc? That's a wide range. What is the material type, out of curiosity? 41/4340?

    What rpm are the test mules testing these at? How will they handle 7500 rpm with 65lb springs?

    I am guessing you did not click on the link and look at the dyno sheet. Here you go.

    We have not tested them with 75lb springs. The idea of the camshafts was to be a drop in set which did not require taking the motor apart to install.

    Pshhh who takes a motor apart to install valve springs, just fill the cylinder up with air so the valves dont drop

    So none of your test cars have gone full retard with a big turbo and beefed up valvetrain?

    Thats what I meant

    So, I'm sure the question on everyone's mind is if they pass the @Enki math test? Having said, these were designed by actual engineers with formal training in valvetrain physics, correct? Publishing the specs first is necessary, I suppose. I thought I saw them somewhere...
