Thread: New cam is in....WOW!!!

Tweet

It's a noticeable difference. I went with a custom ground solid roller for my 505...the last cam was OK, but it was actually made for my 460 (454) a couple years ago. I had always wanted to get a custom cam done by a gentleman I know that designed the Lunati "voodoo" series of cams. His grinds have always been very agressive in ramp design, but yet they close the valve easier, making it better on the valve train. His numbers at .200 lift are where you can see a big difference. And talk about a nasty idle!! This grind is 255/259@.050, and .668 lift on Int. and Exh. Ground on a 110, I installed on a 102 ICL. It's also a 4/7 swap cam. Next week I hope to have my 950HP Holley to bolt on and tune. That will about do it for this engine. Well, for this season, anyway

How is Harold doing anyway?

He's doing fine Eric. We have talked on less than 7 times over the last month or so, and he's always willing to talk for as long as it takes...and sometimes longer!! Jeez, I thought I talked a lot! He's gotta be the nicest guy I have ever met. And he's amazing with all the cam stuff he just throws out. John

When it comes to camshaft's he is one of the best.
When I use to run mud-drags I would only use one of his Utradyne cams.
The workmenship on the cams was second to none.

How does someone get ahold of Harold? I am contemplating running a 871 blower on my BBC in my Model A. Right now I have a Ultradyne flat tappet cam and my motor had never been fired up. I somehow lost the cam specs for the Ultradyne going through divorce & paper shuffling. Thanks and I did not mean to steal the thread.
