Yes you can definately purchase these camshafts right now. They are released due to the good results we're finding with g5mike as our tester. Just purchase the cam core charge, then the camshafts and you'll be good to go.

DAMN! Can you install them by mail order?

Almost worth the drive up there. I'd love to try a set of these with my 2.4 auto to see how well they work.

Yes, you definately have to make an appointment. We're busy with victorys' build and are on a time crunch. Yup, we take Visa, Master & Amex.

Think you're as fast or faster than a SS/SC?

The TWM short throw is definitely worht the money. They did their research and even included new bushings for the bottom of the shift assembly which make it much more precise and crisper. IMO

install for the shifter isn't bad. You have to do a little cutting but thats just to let it get into 2,4,R nothing big and they give a diagram. First time ever doing a shifter install and it went smoothly just take your time.
