Yeah, it's real. Look closely at the cam pic and you will see why specs are difficult to come by.

To find out the specs you first have to beat up on "Chuck". Hasn't happened yet, AFAIK.

You might search around for the Justin Timberlake Cam. It's also real and has been out there for quite a while. The "JT Cam" comes from the same source as the "CN Cam" and has it's own tag line: "Smaller than you think and unassuming but can F... anything it wants to." The car that it is in proves the tag line regularly.

Who the hell would name a cam the Justin Timberlake grind... Cams obviously make a lot more power if they have a really cool name.


Probably because Chuck Norris was taken a long time ago.

Well I didn't know Chuck Norris was taken already. I guess it will have to be Chuck Norris v2.0.

The Chuck Norris v2.0 - Don't just beat the competition...roundhouse kick them in the face!

I hear folks talking about the "flavor of the week" cams. You know like the new "Baskin Robbins" series of cams. 31 flavors and counting.

Personally I'd go for the B&J (Ben & Jerry) line:

The Cherry Garcia® cam for your '70's van with a built 383.
The Chunky Monkey® cam for a 502-572 BBC in a B-body Impy
The Half Baked® cam for anything built by *** [fill in the blanks]
The Phish Food® cam for an engine which can't decide what kind of car it's going into.

The old mind wanders...
