I like mine. It runs as fast in a stock shortblock as my old Bret Bauer custom grind did in a 12.2:1 383 shortblock with all the other parts being the same. It also runs just as fast as the big 242/248 cam I used to run with a stock short block.

That's a little bit bigger than the 224/230 CC503 that a lot of people run and have great luck with.

It'll be worth it. With the times you're already running it may put you into the 11s

The 226/234 grind has been a 'go to' cam for the past 5 years or so. As mentioned, the old 503 is proven to provide fair gains without being as aggressive as it's larger XE brethren.

Provided one has the instruments to collect and experience to analyze cam data you will soon find that success is rooted in appropriate compromise. The 226 grind is a fair example. Here is a graph of its lobe profile & velocity overlayed with the lobe/velocity profiles of the Comp 503's 224deg lobe. The 224 lobe is graphed in light blue/red and the 226 lobe is navy/green. For a small increase (< 5%) in velocity we see a significant gain (> 20%) in area over .200" lobe lift.



We will try to update the cam grind section of our website along with everything else in the near future. We have a great many lobes in 1deg/.005-.010" lobe lift increments in the post popular 220-250deg range that have proven themselves time and time again.

Thanks for the interest!
