Why, is it on sale or something?
How did you choose it amongst all that is out there?
Need to know what your setup is or goals!

Its not a RapTR cam although the specs are similar. It has a good deal less lift and I have no idea what the seat timing is. I would have been out of business long ago If I sold re-ground cams. I've seen brand new cores de-laminate for various reasons. I only use re-grinds for R&D work and they are destroyed afterwards.
