Lunati released custom cam profiles from retired racers

This is kind of weird; I mean I get the marketing behind it, but in theory, these things could be from 1985 LOL

Looks to me like these cams are to close to one another to be from different racerS. Maybe from A former racer.

Well if you want an old school Chevy dirt car I guess it's your day! Now what about a "Classic" secret hyd. roller grind for hot street 80'-90' Mustang?

Marketing based on the old legend of the "secret" cam....

^^^^^Which would be a good question for Mike. Do certain race teams get different better cams than the average guy? Say a small fish wants to try and run with the big boys, and, you do cams for the big boys, does the little guy get the same cam? Just curious. I am guessing no. The reason the big boys are faster usually, isn't just from the cam, but about 40 other reasons.

I bet PDQ and a few others are chomping at the bit to get these

[Frankshaft]

Above, I meant, yes, as in, they get the same cam.

"Cindy" makes it sounds like the cams have custom lobes. So what you'd be interested in is not the camshafts, but whether any of those lobes would be applicable to your specific application.

So basically, when you ask for a custom, their tech guy now has a larger pool of lobes to pick from.

absolutely, as there are those who absolutely refuse to get out of the past. for that reason i have no doubt lunati will sell a bunch of these, no matter how ancient the technology.

I am only going to say that, "I wonder how many of them that UDHarold did for Lunati through the years"?

And some here might go over to Team Chevelle and ask some of the BBC guys how the old Ultrdyne cams do to this day.

Gotta agree, some of UD Harolds last lobes he designed are still better than todays current high dollar custom grinds, IMO.
I'll put my money where my mouth is.

Who has those last lobes he was designing? Was he still with Custom Cam Company?

You are making my point! UD Harold never rested on his past cam designs. He was continually designing new lobes to improve! He hasn't been gone that long (RIP) so his most recent designs are still "cutting edge"

At one point I seem to remember some of his designs had been acquired by Howards or Erson. Maybe someone more knowledgeable than I can chime in.

Camking...I'll take 2, if you throw in a Louis tool for my '0' stamped rocker arms.
