crower cam

just got a email back from crower.actually quite impressed because i sent the email to them at like 2 and i already got a reply. here it is.


Possibly have new cores later in the year.

Regrinds on your stock cams are available. Specs are typically 10-15 degrees
more duration and .010"-.015" more lift. HP gains are in the 5-15 range
depending on tuning. Rough idle is common if we exceed the above figures.

Cost is $250 per cam. Allow 1 week shop time + shipping. Send cores along
with detailed note stating engine model, intended application, power adders
(turbo, NOS, etc), rpm range to address below.

Thanks for your interest in Crower,

5-15 hp sounds decent to me. also more believable than the 30 whp that gude promised. crower is very reputable too.

sounds good. crower is probably what I am going to go with on a cam, unless I can find someone else as reputable as them. Still have to find a core tho

ponyman is on a distinguished road
Has there been any rumblings out there anywhere about replacement aftermarket cams anytime in the future????

Also, how much is breakage a concern for a reground cam???

this is about CAMS yo, not catback exhausts

i thought i told people this like 6 months ago, i met brian crower at SEMA and asked him face to face about it, and they can do the whole thing, the whole head.
