you don't choose your own specs for a custom cam, that's called picking a ots cam...........a custom grind is having someone know what their doing design it , for example: www.flowtechinduction.com or www.camshaftinnovations.com

302army seems very happy with his, thats the same combo (basically) thats going in my Factory Five '33...

just make sure to measure PTV, but in terms of cheap thatll do VERY well, prolly better than most other combos out there actually

Or you can look at a Steeda #18 cam, similar ratings as a B cam, but it's a dual stage and has pretty decent performance gains.

Steeda doesn't have any cams now. Maybe in a month or so but, not now.
