I just bought one and it is totally bare of any markings.
Never seen anything like this before and how do I know what I have?
Thanks,John

It will pull against your brakes at stop and will be a pain. It NEEDS a stall of 2.5 str at least

John,

Great guys to deal with. Many guys here have had awesome reults with there products. The 383 I just installed was built by them and so far I love it. Can't wait to get it to the strip now that it's broken in.

What cam did you go with?
