When it comes to "makers", I believe we are the only manufacturer that is a sponsor on LS1Tech.com. We also believe that when it comes to quality, accuracy and performance that we are the best. That may just sound like another sales pitch, but there is a big difference in the way camshaft manufacturers operate. So, here are the specific advantages that you will benefit from with Cam Motion:
You mention a great bunch of experts. Our cams are available from both Tick Performance and Brian Tooley Racing as well as direct.

10 Camaros You Should Never Buy
One must understand that guys like Ed Curtis, Martin Smallwood, Lil John, and Pat G do not make the cams. They send the specs out to their cam maker of choice. Now with that said, many of the aforementioned names have "proprietary" lobe designs that only they have access to (I know for sure Ed Curtis has several), so you can't just call up Comp and have them grind a cam with those "proprietary" lobes. You would have to go through the person who owns the design. Also, most of the top names in specing out cams uses more than one manufacturer to grind cams. All of that depends on the setup. Ed Curtis uses Comp and Lunati for sure, but may user others as well. Martin Smallwood uses Comp, and I'm pretty sure he also uses Cam Motion now.
When Toyota decided to enter the Nationwide/Nascar series they hired Harold away from Lunati as flat tappet stuff was always his specialty.
The few bullet cams I've run have been excellent and all the Isky stuff does it's job well but neither are big name players in the LS world.
Best people that spec are Pat G,Ed Curtis,Skip at Cam motion and Geoff at EPS.
COMP cams can go to hell. They suck!!
Kip (not skip) is cam motion, and he is excellent. I also think very highly of Martin Smallwood at Tick and Tony Mamo as cam specifiers/ designers
I have owned or installed cams from Schneider, Isky, Comp, Crane, Lunati, Crower, Cam Dynamics, Erson and probably others that I can't remember. These days I use and recommend Cam Motion. I think Cam Motion sells a superior product.
I've never had a flat tappet cam of theirs flatten a lobe and like I said, I've probably run at least 50-60 over the years.
I don't remember ever having my hands on those. I did forget a warehouse brand from Wolverine called "Blue Racer" that went into some the the low cost stuff. Then of course there was all the OEM stuff, TRW and Sealed Power stuff, but who knows who manufactured those for them.
