Great job guys, of course I will be a little sad that there won't be more for a while.
Ed was that idle clip from the car you tuned that had around a 23x-24x cam? What lsa?

Gerry,
The cam was "designed" by Bret Bauer of Bauer Racing Engines. I have no idea what lobes Bret used and couldn't find anything even close in the Comp catalog. Bret and I sort of agreed on what we roughly thought would work and then I got the hell out of the way and let him do his job. This is the second round for Bret and I. We both learned a lot in the 2 years since the first cam and this one is definitely a winner. I really couldn't be happier with the overall performance. It meets my needs.
Contact Bret for the exact specs.

Thank you sir.....I might be a little closer now to getting my own 400ci motor under way, I'm already going with the WCCH L92s now I maybe closer to a cam chioce. Might have to change it up a little since I have an A4 and I'm going to be spraying it.

FWIW, I planned to spend ALL WINTER reading up on my head swap for next year, but found damaged valves and rockers so now I'm frantically trying to learn if L92's will work with my cam...but it is a 228/232. I was just trying to find the numbers for his cam to see where they found the sweet spot.
Great thread...sorry I pissed you off. I need to get my car back on the road. I've decided to get ported 243's.

WTF did I say to **** you off? I just tried to go through all of the posts as quickly as I could to see what the specs were, but never found them. I didn't say it was a bad thing...I sure as hell don't give away all my secrets for free either.

Sorry Gerry, maybe I'm a little sensitive from some past BS here. BTW: the last cam worked very very well. It was a 234-240 112 +0 XE-R. This cam just works a little better but it's just not my cam to give the specs away. FWIW, I think you can do much better than the cam you have on the L92 setups.

If that makes me sound like a dick then let me explain. I see two problems with me deciding on the L92s. First...I love my cam and want to keep it, but it looks like my 4 degree split is not what everyone is doing...they are doing a large split with long exhaust duration -- exactly the opposite of my cam.
THEN I have people yelling at me that there are idiots that don't know the secret that L92's work with small cams too...so I just wanted to see how small they were working with. Even if I did find the numbers, I'm running a 364, not a big cube motor.
And last but not least, I understand people not wanting to do a hundred hours of research only to give everything away for free. I'm cool with that.
Hope this clears it up.

It also seems...and correct me if I'm wrong...that there's not a fantastic intake option yet. If there was, maybe smaller cams like mine would work. Unfortunately, my car is sitting in the garage on jack stands waiting for me to order heads and all associated goodies.
Of course...this never happens at a good time either, but you all know Murphey, I'm sure.

Well I dont know how long my motor will last, but I thank you kevin for paying for a whole lot of R&D for us either having or looking to get a 402 motor. I saw not errors so thanks for the trial.
