GI: Roller cam conversions/hybrid cams
Just curious if you guys are interested in hybrid specific cams? I have an "insider" at Comp and have access to over 1700 lobes for custom grinds 
Also, a friend has been running a modified set of rollers for almost a year now, so along with not only can we get the custom roller grinds, we can make a conversion kit.
Any interest?

Re: GI: Roller cam conversions/hybrid cams
You've got my attention, especially concerning anything that will make our little sixes more efficient. 
If I had the time and money, I'd be doing the hybrid boogie right now. Still need that front cover and damper, though...

Re: GI: Roller cam conversions/hybrid cams
Yes, Gen 1 (and 2) roller conversions.
It will be a complete kit with everything you need to install except for cam, and of course pushrods (Gen 3 top ends will need to measure pushrod length on final assembly). Until we can finish up a production version, price is still on the table.
In the future, we would like to offer a complete kit and a variety cams that would include pushrods.

Re: GI: Roller cam conversions/hybrid cams
Very interested, as soon as the 355 is in the IROC I'm going back to getting my 3.4/3400 done.

Re: GI: Roller cam conversions/hybrid cams
Well not that you guys would be interested, but here's a grind I cam up with for a 3.4/3500 in a rock crawler.
I don't like the "stages" tag people put on parts, so this is my "torquer" cam...

$289 for a flat tappet cam with lifters, designed around your engine/application.

Re: GI: Roller cam conversions/hybrid cams
Well, sold several cams for various vehicles and applications 
A rock-crawling buggy with a 3.4/3500 11.56:1 hybrid, 3.4/3500 11.56:1 hybrid in a f-body, got some Fiero's and s-10's in the mix.
Hopefully you guys will post videos as well, but here's a member from another board that has my ported heads (someone else's manis) and one of my cams.
He wanted lope, he got it - still not running right until he receives my obd1.5-obd1 swap kit, takes the engine several minutes to "learn" idle lol...

The cam is off the shelf but a lot of the other components are custom or special in some aspect.
Now, if I ever build my turbo motor.... that's another story!

Re: GI: Roller cam conversions/hybrid cams
Cam lobes have increased! There are over 4000 total lobes we can choose from 
More videos coming soon. Had to build some custom engine harnesses for a few of the cams to even run (3.4 OBD1.5 converted to OBD1 - running 1227727 and 1227730 ECM's).
