QUOTE Cam - webcam #73 + 5deg on exhaust + lifters So.. Where were you thinking of buying that cam? The grind was Raby developed. Some have tried to rip it off but they leave out one very specific characteristic that makes the difference. But today its not the latest and greatest.. Development never rests and nothing ever stays the same.. This post has been edited by Jake Raby: Oct 26 2011, 06:38 PM |

The missing ingredient is the fun I have doing it myself (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) Now seriously, I would've buy it from you but I don't want the entire kit and you stated few weeks ago that you're disconcerting the cam kit program. I'm only buying from people who want to sell, period. |

I got my cam already and happy with it. Jake did post not long ago that he wants to discontinue the cam program since he has problems sourcing parts, probably because he has many items in his kit in addition to the cam. I think Jake was just cynical about cam availability. After-all, you can buy custom cams from many vendors. But I'm happy to see that he likes my grind. It took me a lot of R&D to figure what I should use. |

I guess that Jake was just fooling around, so please (IMG:style_emoticons/default/KMA.gif) |
