well, customs are about the same price so like i did, I researched a lot on my combo and talked to a few different people from different companies and kinda did a happy-medium between them. It's gonna be a smaller grind than you think. Mine is a 222 .563 114 comp cam

If you're going to insist a custom grind, then check one thing. . . If the cam rep doesn't ask you what your backpressure is, then they have no business grinding custom turbo cams. I'd be willing to bet that 4 out of 5 don't ask, or don't know to ask that question.

That's just theory, though. Let me know if I'm wrong. In this case, I'd like to be wrong, because then I could upgrade my own cam. . .

we are doing a Hummer with a 408, TFS heads, Victor Jr. etc.. and we are doing a
236/232 .601 .595 114. May not be able to dyno it, but the owner wants to take it to the track at least once. It should be a site to see; '07 kindof a metallic teal color, 24" wheels, Brembo brakes, 408, 4L80, rear turbo. It should be interesting.
