Actually just talked to him on Friday. Said he could get me more torque and HP with better fuel economy. Recommended a cam that was actually smaller than what I expected.

I had Chris to design a custom cam to my old engine, and highly recomend his custom cams! Hi knows how to get the most out of your not so good cylinder heads. My engine made 528 dyno prooven hp with ported peanut port heads.

I have AFR clone heads with AFR valves. I reused the cam on my last refresh that was setup for GM large ovals and lower compression. Shooting for 600+ HP

Straub was banned from this forum. For legit reasons.
