I don't mind posting my cam specs but I'd rather Martin post, or not post, what he's comfortable with revealing.
I know some companies are secretive about their specs and I respect that decision
Any more details on that FRS Intake?

I can respect that.
The thing is Y ? be Secretive about a custom cam for your particular engine not a off the shelf cam meant for every1. My cam was a 256/270 .715 solid roller with 1.7 rockers, got 1.8 rockers for a 408 by Martin. Chris can port match any intake for around 400-600 bucks.
He may give me a deal as I'm a little FRH sales man. LOL!!!!!

Actually there was nothing wrong with my current cam.
I made 500 rwhp and 470 rwtq on a VERY stingy dyno in humid Florida weather with 4:10's and 19" rims with big, heavy drag radials.
Out of curiosity I called Martin about six weeks ago and told him my set up at which point I then asked him what would he recommend as a custom spec camshaft. He was very informative and very helpful and answered all my questions and the camshaft that he spec'd for me was considerably different than the one I run now.
After that very educational conversation, 6 weeks later I ordered the camshaft and will strap the car down on the same dyno to see the difference.
Gonna put my current cam on eBay
Edit: I run with Exotics on Corsa Rally's. 2 months ago I put bus lengths on an Audi R8 V10 Plus in a highway race. So I'm making good real world power.
