Yes, And the grind # is not the same as any of the ones I have either, I
would imagine Isky will make whatever you might desire, as I know one of my
old boxes reads "Custom Grind". Obviously, the Kastner cams have always
been THE cams to model after... tweaked a bit I suppose for personal style
and financial means. (more radical = more rebuilds.)
Forgive me Kas and Chas's GT6. It kills me that I haven't gotten your new
book yet... Excuses, excuses... every extra dime I make GONE into my basic
racing budget. The cost of racing this thing has not left over much
cash to buy the book that will make me go faster and spend more money!
So Chuck you have an S-9 in the new GT6, or ?
This seems like a perfect moment please for one of Ya'll to enlighten the
less knowledgeable about what exactly are the key numbers regarding duration
and lift,, opening and closing, and all that... What will
ultimately determine a cam shifting from mild to say not so mild? A "cliff
notes" version, using these 2 Cams as an example (Kas S-9 and this Isky
Z-66+10)?
Cheers.
