Question Should you get a cam card with a "custom" cam????

I bought a F4 cam from Futral but it did not come with a spec card only the discription of the cam duration, lift and LSA. Since this is a "custom" grind from Futral should I have received a cam card or is it a

I won't buy any cam that doesn't come with a cam card. It is useless otherwise.

Some with black out the lobe identification, but that is about it.

Good. I will give the Futral's a call in the morning. I kind of figured Chris Robinson at RPM would like to have the card when my Vette gets dyno tuned.

I don't believe the cam card will help him tune any better. It's just nice to be able to degree your cam in to the exact specs, and to do that, it's always good to have the card.

I didn't get one with my Futral cam I had either. The duration, lift, LSA, and ICL was printed on the box.. but no "cam card"
