Hi Henry
(DISCLAIMER) I am not an expert on this subject but what I do know I am gla=
d to share.
I know this subject can be controversial just because there are so many opp=

whose opinion is right or wrong mainly because an opinion is not science or=
 fact based quantifiable data. I am however more than willing to have a fru=
itful conversation that helps every one increase their knowledge base on th=
is subject.
Camshafts along with many (too many, haha) other high performance or racing=
 items have been my passion for over 45 years and I have spent countless do=
llars and hours investigating this so called black art called cam design. I=
 have asked some of the best cam designers in the world about what I need i=
n any particular motor and reached a point where some started saying " I do=
n't know the answer to that question", others blew me off by saying that wo=
n't work with no explanation why. When I was right around 40 years old I to=
ok on the attitude screw it, I'm going to do it anyhow. I can truthfully sa=
y most things I tried in fact did not work but some things actually did.=C2=
=A0
Moving forward there are 2 quotes I am reminded of that I think are applica=
ble here, the first is; " It's easier to convince someone of a lie that con=
vince them they have been lied to" and the second is "Everything in the uni=
verse can be explained with math".
In a general sense Ed Iskendarion, Harvey Crane, Dema Elgin and many others=
 were way ahead of their time and did their best to apply some math for smo=
othing purposes and trial and error to build cams that would make power and=
 not beat the valve train to death. Over the years cam companies have amass=
ed thousands of lobe profiles and that combined with a ton of dyno run data=
 from engine builders is how they make their recommendations for todays cus=
tomers so the question is can they get you close? I think so depending on w=
hat engine you are working with, Chevy's and Fords, you have a really good =
chance. Other off brand or non mainstream engines are basically what someon=
e has developed on their own through trial and error like Kas. As a side no=
te, many NASCAR engine shops have 55 gallon barrels full of trial and error=
 camshafts headed to the scrap yard.
The worlds best cam designer to date in my opinion would be a guy you never=
 heard of named Dick Jones. Dick had developed the math by proving it over =
decades of testing and has 4 Indy wins to his credit among many other wins =
in racing. Dicks son Rick Jones has take the math a step further by refinin=
g it and building a software program that will make you look like a hero ri=
ght out of the box.
Today, there is a way to have the perfect camshaft for your specific combin=
ation of parts. The perfect cam may or may not make more max hp than what y=
ou have currently depending on how good your combination of parts are. My m=
otors have made a couple more hp on the top but tons more on the bottom and=
 mid range which is why I have been accused of cheating, the cars really ac=
celerate of the corners which is how you win races.
SUPPLY AND DEMAND=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0
In simple terms, a combination of engine parts is the demand side and the c=
amshaft acts as the supply side. X engine specs demand X supply to make X H=
P at X RPM's, the cam design software looks at these parameters and mathema=
tically generates a profile providing the supply the your combination of pa=
rts demand. The specifics are a little hard to get your head around and tha=
t's why I offered to help with cam designs.
Most race engine camshafts are too large in my experience, that's why the T=
Q range is so tight or small (peaky). Enzo once said, HP sells cars and TQ =
wins races. Example - ideally we want a really wide TQ band say 4500-8000 f=
or example. If the engine makes peak HP at say 7500rpm and still is making =
power at 8000 your combo of parts are good. If the motor makes peak HP at 7=
500 and drops off a cliff at 7600 your parts are not capable of getting to =
8000, its not the camshafts fault generally speaking.
You can get the software here and its stupid cheap at the moment.=C2=A0http=
s://induction-logic.com/=C2=A0
I thinks that's enough to get the ball rolling don't you, haha.

 Rick,

Needing to beat the guys at the pointy end of the pack is what racing is=20
all about, right?

If your engine has the billet bottom end you describe, you can safely=20
run pretty much any cam you desire. Plenty of options out there, from=20
mild to wild. You are going to get a bunch of opinions out of this=20
thread!

First data point for you, the majority of the front running 4 cylinder=20
TR's in the east run the old Gillanders #24. It's a beast, makes power=20
up to and beyond 7 grand. You let the revs drop below 4 grand and it is=20
game over for that lap! I can tell you multiple Kastner Cup winners had=20
that cam in their car when they took home the Cup.

engine builders is how they make their recommendations for todays customers=
 so the question is can they get you close? I think so depending on what en=
gine you are working with, Chevy's and Fords, you have a really good chance=
. Other off brand or non mainstream engines are basically what someone has =
developed on their own through trial and error like Kas. As a side note, ma=
ny NASCAR engine shops have 55 gallon barrels full of trial and error camsh=
afts headed to the scrap yard.</div><div dir=3D"ltr" style=3D"font-family:H=

e is a way to have the perfect camshaft for your specific combination of pa=
rts. The perfect cam may or may not make more max hp than what you have cur=
rently depending on how good your combination of parts are. My motors have =
made a couple more hp on the top but tons more on the bottom and mid range =
which is why I have been accused of cheating, the cars really accelerate of=
 the corners which is how you win races.</div><div dir=3D"ltr" style=3D"fon=

supply to make X HP at X RPM's, the cam design software looks at these para=
meters and mathematically generates a profile providing the supply the your=
 combination of parts demand. The specifics are a little hard to get your h=

 8000 your combo of parts are good. If the motor makes peak HP at 7500 and =
drops off a cliff at 7600 your parts are not capable of getting to 8000, it=
