Be interesting to build a database, on these "custom" cams.
Im sure everyone had to listen to speeches about area under the curve, exhaust port efficiency, rod angles, how tall decks suck becuase of the angles, and all the other reasons they need a custom tailored cam. And what they actually get, is a common cam everyone else is getting within a hair or two.

Should start a new thread called rmbuilder or Bob grinds and have all post their cam cards.

Cam design is pretty easy at Marine Kinetics.

Maybe, i can have guys email me their combos and cam specs, and i can make an easy to read list. Easier to compare that way, plus, bob cant yell at them for putting it on the interweb

Here is the card from my old engine I had Bob spec out.
439 CU
10.4:1 CR
Stealth Dual Plane
AFR 265 Ovals
Pro Systems 950
Never dyno'd the engine but based on the speeds I got it was a solid 530+ hp engine. Ran it for two seasons and then sold the engine. Either way here is the cam he designed for that engine.
