That really is an incredible camshaft and it's hard to believe that it debuted during the first year of the big block in 1965! Now I still have the original one I took out of my virgin LS-6 and it's stamped on the end 3904362. I guess they changed the part # in 1970. I've run high 11's with that camshaft. It's truly the musclecar camshaft where you could drive the car to work during the week and still turn very respectable times at the dragstrip come the weekend.

Count me in for one as well. Possibly more shortly will talk to a few people not on the board.

A couple of things:

1) those of you in the middle of engine builds & needing your cams *yesterday*, PLEASE drop me a private message ASAP so we can get your cams out first.

2) also, would anyone be interested in a set of lifters to go along with their new cam? I know a few are gonna do their own thing for lifters, but thought I'd ask since they *could* be available to those so inclined.
