Re: Project... Tinker !!!
I have a comp cam that came out of wild mouse that has way more round lobes than yours !! I called them and they told me I must have installed wrong or improper break in !! Bulls@#t I will not use a comp cam again . Have too many friends that have had trouble with them getting flat lobes on em . I am sure someone will chime in and tell me they think they are great and it was my fault . I've been building motors for 20 yrs this was my first and last comp cam!!!! My 2 cents ! I think the cam you told me about will be great in your motor !! Later, Bob

I've been building engines with Comps for years with no problems, but that doesn't mean they didn't ship one out without it being case hardened. It happened to GM in late 60's, and it could have happened at Comp. Either way that sucks, and I hate to hear about that.

Re: Project... Tinker !!!
I totally understand. If my first product from a manufacturer was bad, I sure wouldn't be in a hurry to buy from them again ESPECIALLY since customer service didn't help you out any.

Re: Project... Tinker !!!
Yup They acted like since I didn't have a shop with my name on it or I wasn't what they call a "professional" I must be a automatic retard !!! So I felt that people like that don't need my money!!! Bob

Its the only comp Ive ever ran & it sure doesnt make me want another one... Im not saying my brother couldnt have done something wrong, but I highly doubt it I mean, hes about as picky / pefectionist as I am on engines & I dont think he would have just been a "Auto Retard" ![]() I called Lunati & had a great experience with them... I called TALKED TO A PERSON, then that person tranfered me to ANOTHER PERSON !!!! Great deal ![]() I did call back later & the time between the first person & the second person was a lot longer than the INSTANT transfer I got the first time, but it sure beats the heck out of a lot of other companies that you have to have a user manual to get through the Auto system BTW Bob, I showed you 2 cams... the 00017 & the 00010 Which one did you like better ??? Im thinking the 00010 even tho its prolly a lil big for my engine, it should be sweet |
