Sounds too good to be true but I think I would try it out for $35. He does seem to have a very good reputation.

Anyone ever use this service?

 

seems like a pretty good deal, i usally just spend many, many hours running cams threw my desktop dyno to pick cams and works out pretty well, he pretty much just does it for you

 

The only thing i am confused about is are these "theoritical" best cam designs based on what is possible or what is practical?

A cam that allows you to make 700hp is not much help if it is so hard on the parts that it can't be made to last.

The thing is there are so many varibles like,weight,gears,cubic inch,etc;which I'm sure he will want to know but what about personal peference.If it's for a race car then you try for max hp for a particular combonation of parts,but for a street car it would depend on your pp some like it mild,others like it wild.

 

jcb999: Good point, however I don't think his reputation would last if he sold bogus specs. I do believe he wants to protect his rep.

E-Z: At the bottom of the page he has a link to a form to fill out which covers alot of variables.

 

I do have one of his books and he does seem to go much deeper into things than just the basics,he looks for the extra hp in every little nook and cranny and that can add up.

 

id still like to see one of these magic formulas (like a cam-analyzer printout). Just say I am from missouri.
