Why would a cam have bugs to be worked out?

More important would be to find out what kind of lobe they use. That would determine where they're going to make power and their drivability.

I don't think people were listening to my advice with that damn thing in my sig.

Call Gunnar at Patriot and ask him if those lobes check in near XER or XE (using Comp lobes as a baseline) specifications and back to us.
