Cams
Still working on new grinds, but have targeted some profound changes for the 03-04 CR and the 12V.
The old Helix 2 is still pretty good in the 04.5 - 07, but we found some tweaks there as well. One would have to kill one of my testers to get the new cam back out of his engine. Still a few months out on release.
The original Helix 2 cams are in stock though. Sold 10 before I even opened the crate.

Great...this will give me motivation to fix a couple of other small things for some dyno time.

Don- could you tell me (PM if needed) the specs on the Helix2? I am primarily looking for the degrees of valve overlap, I think you said the LSA is 110.3*. Thanks!

Overlap for an H2b should be ~74.6* @ seat timing.

Not for seat timing... maybe .050" is easier for you? (-22.1*)

Mike is pretty close. It is spec'd to be -24.4 and his may have measured the -22.1.
For comparison:
The stock Cummins marine is -25.6 degrees Overlap
The stock Cummins 24VP is -33.4 degrees Overlap
The Helix 2 has changed a bunch now anyway, so we are talking the older grind from 2004-2005 time frame in this thread.

All the cams are the original Helix 2. The new grind is not very well distributed yet. Only a handful have it.
Actually there may be one or two more tweaks before final release of the new grind.

What's the overlap on a stock Cummins (non marine) 12 valve cam?

Darn - my lobe profiles are scattered a degree or two around Don's numbers... time to either get my sliderule recalibrated or update the prescription on my monocle!
FWIW BigBlue, my spreadsheet shows -22.5*... Don?

yes, but the H2 is not a final product yet. Getting close. Just a few tweaks left.
