Best cam prices

Where is everybody getting the best prices on cams. I am thinking about the Lunati 50143. Of course, there is Summit, and other common online places, but just want to get opinions.

Re: Best cam prices

Why shop around just to save a dollar? Go with whichever outlet you like best. I like Jegs, and when they don't have what I'm after, I try summit. I don't go comparing prices, usually it's within a nickel anyway. One of them might be $xx.95, while the other is $xx.99.

Re: Best cam prices

Atilla's right. My personal favorite is summit, but that's a chocolate/vanilla thing.
They get the parts from the same vendor and mark it up at a pretty consistent number.

Havent tried with cams but I can tell you the deals are out their if you look for them; case in point I bought a set of pistions from KMJ performance part # H6631CP30 for 176.65 after shipping the same set from summit is 239.60 befor shipping so it pays to shop around. some places Id recommend looking is KMJ, Speedway motors, Flatlander racing, and CNC-motorsports all these have good prices but CNC is getting up their with jegs and summit on most stuff. Happy hunting
