Need Cartek stage 3x cam specs. I need the Cam specs for the Cartek stage 3x cam.Not to copy it,just to compare for a customer that is thinking of changing it.
Anybody know the detailed specs?
They can be PM'd to me if you do not want to post them.
(yes,I can take it out and have it doctor'd but would rather get an idea before pulling it)
Thanks
Don

Guess I'll have to pull it and doctor it myself,I've got 3 cars with them and the customer's hate the lack of torque

No I don't care to share what it is, I do not see the need for a shop to divulge its ''secrets''. That is the whole point behind comepetition, to come up with something that your compeditor has not thought of yet.
I have that cam and I am not complaining. It was designed to be run in the upper RPM band, therefore mid-range torque was not an issue, for those to whom it is an issue CARTEK offers other alternatives. That cam has proven itself track worthie in Brent's Corvette and in Pete's Camaro with Mid 10's what is there to complain about.

i have ridden in 2 cars w/ this cam....
one was cam only (11.2) on the track and daily driver
this car pulls throughout the rev range w/ 4.10's... yes it certainly picks up quite a bit at 4500 rpm but it in no way "lags" under that rpm....
the second was petes camaro mentioned above which is a complete monster (he has ported ls6 heads) and the low end torque was insane... plus it is a mid 10 second car.... Plus I later found out due to tuning issues and a slippping clutch the car was down quite a bit of horsepower....
I guess my point is that this cam allows u to have awesome time slips while allowing u to still have a nice car for the street....
