I have contacted you through pm and email. I've even tried to call you.
I'm putting my car back together in a week or two. I have a ported head
and custom wiseco pistons with huge valve reliefs. I think my car would
be perfect for these cams and would show you good numbers that you could
advertise. Please respond back to me.

Here is my build thread and head flow numbers. Please consider my car as
a tester.

okay, finally got a hold of JBP. Looks like I'm 2nd in line to test these cams on a built motor. So I'm just kind of waiting and seeing if the guy falls through or not. I'd be super stoked to test these cams out for sure.

I guess me and area47 are pushing them to let us test them. JBP seems to be undecided. I don't understand. Area47 would be tuning both cars, his with stock head and mine with ported head, both with upgraded valve springs. Should be a no brainer.

Seeing as how Area has more comprehensive experience with cams in an LSJ than i know of, he would be one of the best suited to test these out. And ralli, since like above stated with his crazy port job, with Area tuning both, it should be a no-brainer.

You don't need new cam gears. It is just labour and tuning you need to take care of, if you don't plan to install them yourself contact a local REPUTABLE shop.

I SEE THAT YOU SAY THE GB IS UNTIL APRIL 7TH. BUT HOW CAN YOU EXPECT US TO SEND YOU MONEY IF YOU DONT TELL US EXACTLY HOW THE STOCK CAR RESPONDS TO THE CAMS..... HONESTLY IF I AM GOING TO SHELL OUT THE 700$ FOR THIS I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THE NUMBERS TO PROVE IT DOES SOMETHING. AND ALSO I WOULD WANT THE GUY WHO TUNED THE TESTERS.... TO LET US KNOW EXACTLY HOW BAD THE CAR/ OR HOW GOOD THE CAR RESPONDED.....

THIS CAR IS MY DD, I WOULD LOVE ME A SET..... BUT IM NOT GUNNA PUT THESE IN UNLESS YOU CAN GAURENTEE THAT THESE ARE GOLDEN!....

The first 2 pairs of cams are being sent to 2 members of this forum around the 20th. Once they have installed the cams we, or they, will be posing the dyno results.

As for the GB ending April 7th, I dont know why a date has been set. The GB will not be ending on the 7th of April as we dont want to rush the install and tune.

Thanks,
JBP

Okay that sounds good...... i mean i just want to see the numbers. and let us know how they were to tune. let us hear from the guy who tunes them on what he honestly thinks....
is it

1- i can get these for my DD without having worries that it will act up on me...

or...

2- if i use my car as a daily driver, just to stay away untill i plan to make a build or just use the car for fun.

JBP... i have no doubt in my mind that you guys are gunna make this thing amazing, cause hell the work you all do.... is amazing!.... i just need more reassurence.
