I'm gauging interest in selling complete set of cams for the different motors, but I need to know how many people are interrested in them for what motor...What motor would you like to see COMPLETE Spring and Camshaft sets for?

I voted SR bc i own SR, but on second thought, there really arent any cam choices for the KA guys...

This would expand the choices for all of the motors, and also allow for custom grinds to suit specific needs/cars.

Sets would come complete with camshafts and springs.

I have an SR, but I think a set for the KA-T should be made. There are already a few different cam choices for the SR crowd.

sounds good.I'm beating on the cam profiler tonight to see if I can get some worked up that will allow for quicker turbo spool at lower RPMs without a loss of torque.

I voted the SR20, because I have one. Then all I could think about is why the SR20, there are already all the Japanese aftermarket cams, plus JWT and who knows what else. With turbo cams for the KA24DE, you'd have a higher profit margin. =)

don't look at this as me needing profit...look at this as an opportunity to get something better that another company can't compare to

this wil NOT require stock cams to be used for regrinds.Our goal is to have minimal downtime possible for any car.

I would like to see some ka24et cams as well, but most of all I would like to someone with the knowhow of what i need, say I have high compression with an ECU someone help me out to figure what the best lift/duration, not just say a mild cam, or "hot" cam or whatnot, just someone to tell for what you want this is what you need.

Actually i'm not going to be boosting, I would just want to see some ka-t cams for those people because most everyone else has someone to go to. As far as my motor, I'm thinking long and hard about Import performance Parts stroker kit (if it will ever come out) and it would be just an All Motor car. So i would have higher compression probably about a 10.5CR and of course I/H/E. It is an auto, but i plan to get a high stall convertor so I would just need a cam to match the stall speed (around 3400-3600). I would have JWT ecu or some sort of engine managmet. I would be happy with 5hp from a cam but would hope for more like 10hp.

BTW on you nitrous ka you ran a 4000 stall convertor right? how streetable was that? Did you dayly drive that?
