SUPPORTING VENDOR
In the top photo, a factory 5.9 common rail is compared to our new camshaft, which started life as a Brazilian Cummins core. The Cummins cam is on the top, our new cam is on the bottom.
This is the first finished cam in our series of custom camshafts. Release versions will have a stronger front section that is stress relieved. The finished lobe is close to 1" in width.
The cam specs are 0.317 intake lobe lift duration is 198 @ 0.050 - 220 @ 0.020 lift
0.305 exhaust lobe lift 208 @ 0.050 - 236 @ 0.020
Actual lift 0.428 x 0.442
LSA 106 ICL 100
This camshaft will be installed, dynoed and road tested with accumulative data compiled. The time has come for custom ground cams to be available, we are working on many different grinds for differing combinations. This coupled with our new chassis dyno, will show performance increases and decrease development time.
Follow this link for a comparison of a stocker versus another popular cam, I think the casting difference will be obvious.
