I was chasing my tail with my previous engine for two years. No matter what we tried - fuel pressure, boost, exhaust - nothing changed the WOT much at all. Like we hit a brick wall.

Bob sent me an email, came up with a custum grind for my application and I picked up almost 100 HP and 300 RPM at WOT. The previous builder claimed he had used that cam in a dozen engines with no issue.

Bob fixed the problem and was an absolute gentleman to deal with. Save yourself time, money and frustration - call Bob first.

Glad to hear all of the good news on Bob!! My new high hp SBC has one of his solid roller cams! I did speak with him on the phone a couple of times before getting the motor and he was very informative!

Be careful with Bob,last time I upgraded my motor I wanted to make 1000hp and with his cam I ended up making 1100, he's a GREAT GUY,he delivers EXACTLY what he says,Smitty

I can't say enough positive things about Bob. I am running his cams now. He is great to work with, and he is even helping me with some issues I still have with my motors that are not even cam related. He is one of the best when it comes to anything related to the valvetrain of an engine. He is the epitome of what customer service AFTER the sale is all about.

Horsepower was not my first priority---but rather a smooth idle was! I told Bob I wanted a cam for my 565cid naturally aspirated engines that could give me the smoothist idle and yet still make peak power at 5400-5500rpm---probably not the easiest request, but I told Bob; "let's experiment a little and have a little fun while doing it"----he was just the man for the job and he delivered as I asked!

My engines make peak power @5400rpm---they idle @600rpm in NEUTRAL and will drop down to 500rpm in gear. My 32' AT does 94mph in flat water with full fuel tanks!

I often wonder what kind of power my engines would have made if I had allowed Bob to design the cams in a way that he really wanted to see installed in my engines. (???)
