Yup, thats the exact level of intellect I expected out of you. It's like listening to an interview with a WWE wrestler. Good luck with your wave crusher and all new parts.

I feel for tim , he spent more on these engines than my 3 boats are worth, but there was no gun to his head. At the time bob certainly seemed to be the guy, I think there must be a Lot more to this than we will ever know.to me its 50 50 both sides erred in the beginning, wrong parts , not checking what was delivered.
I hope, for him it all works out and he finds a few more mph in the setup, but he should listen to some sage advice that has been given to him and check everything to find his issues.
I don't know jack but a lot of people brought up things in the hundred threads that have come about.

What was bobs input regarding the outcome? If he spec'd cams based on EXACT other components used with builds and simply didn't pull expected hp to desired rpm I would imagine he'd just grind a couple others and ship out and have Tim return originals for thorough examination. Was this ever discussed? I'm just posting as a neutral party. Just seems strange how he went from cam god helping countless Oso members for many years with a pretty well proven track record to getting slammed over the last several months. I've talked to Bob a few different times and he seemed like a very stand up guy. Something going on with his health or family that is distracting his work? I sincerely hope not. Has anyone talked to him as of recent?

Bob doesnt grind anything. He has to pay for the custom cams he gets from cam motion.
