They switched to Comp a while back (6 months? maybe more). From what someone told me, the Comp cams seemed to be more consistent in their profiles and MTI could get them in stock quicker.

I've had a Lunati and a Comp cam in my car both from MTI and I have to say that I like the Comp better.

Just my .02.

Take care.

Comp underpriced 'em/charged MTI less. At least the same quality.

What are yer exact #'s? Did Comp hit right on the MTI advertised #'s (221/221 .558/.558 @ 112), or something just offa that?

My exact spec's per the cam card are 221/221 .559/.559 112lsa.

I was just checking making sure there were no mistakes that's all. I'd hate to have a problem when I could have so easily checked about it on here that's all , thanks guy's <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I heard they switched because Lunati's quality sucked ***.
