I am actually a member of the Ka-t.org forum and most of the cam searches i do i just find threads of constant argument about advertised duration versus actual duration at certain lifts and what not.

and nate thanks for the cam shop i'll keep them in mind but i was really looking for a new cam instead of a regrind so i can have a better lobe seperation.

the only other place that makes a cam for the SOHC I know of is http://www.hybridka.com although I have never done business with them.

Don can get you a billet cam for a turbo app now. I would at least ask him about what his thoughts are for your setup.

they dont have it listed so you'll have to order a brochure for legacy models.

*edit Damnit they make alot of parts for the KA24E and I cant seem to find them.

Nissan Motorsports is eternally backordered at this point anyway...good luck getting one.

On the other hand Colt Cams (manufacturer of PDM's cams) are working on a billet tri flow cam that should be really nice.

i am looking for something with wider lobe separation b/c its prob one of the most important parts of a turbo cam and you can do very much in the way of lobe separation with a regrind. i'm trying to get the smallest overlap possible so i can run higher boost.
