Looks like there's a national shortage. WTF!?!?! Scoggins-Dickey is out, my dealer is out. Are they really that high demand? It's been 3 weeks since I ordered mine. ARG

Its probably more of low supply than high demand. More people are probably getting the LT4 hot cam insted.

Hey I was wondering if you have heard anything on that cam. I Have been waiting patiently also. If you hear anything on it could you post it? It seems that we both ordered around the same time.My goal was to order it and get it in while I have the car away for the winter, but it isnt looking so good. Spring is right around the corner. Thanks for any info you hear.

My dealer has one on order. Just to see how things were going I called Scoggins-Dickey. I told the guy the PN and before he even typed it into the computer he started laughing. He said they've been waiting to get them in for 7 months...7 MONTHS!!!

So I'm on the lookout for a different cam. I found a TPI cam that should make around the same power in my setup, but it's $250...and for that I can go and buy a CraneCams roller.

You guys should check out the Comp line of rollers with 112 lobe sep. really nice and won't need 1.6 rockers to get good lift. Already in the cam.
