Duration at .050" lift - 173.5 degrees

I run these cams in a built motor....

could not be happier with them...

I am not 100%sure how much power I got out of them as I did alot of work at once. but I do know that it is very smooth and good midrange power over the standard built motor.

It would be quite interesting to see a back to back comparison, before and after, with these Camshaft's.

There's alot more of these car's nowaday's making 400+ rear wheel kilowatts, and a set of Cam's could make a reasonable upgrade here in power, for the dollar's spent.

Maybe Atomic could come to the party and show some before and after result's?

If you could even get 10 kilowatts at the wheel's from fitting them to a "400+" set up, you'd have to be pretty happy, considering how expensive it get's to make more power from there.

I think they were somewhere around the $1000 mark supplied for the Atomic's, plus I'd guesstimate another say $500 (!?) to have them fitted and have your Tune "touched up" to suit.

Good value.
