fuck man,

it has some fat lift...

.4770

it seems like a good cam to me, you might run into some street driven problems being 290, but that's advertised. at .050" lift you have 212 which is not bad.

what cam is that ?
Don't let the opinions of the average man sway you. Dream, and he thinks you're crazy. Succeed, and he thinks you're lucky. Acquire wealth, and he thinks you're greedy. Pay no attention. He simply doesn't understand.

to be fair, it wouldn't be ANTRX if we stayed on topic.

and if someone wasn't cranky at Chr1s for something he said...

Be specific.

Yes and no,

A CA18ET cam will work on a CA20E

A CA18DE/T cam will not work (for the obvious twin cam setup as opposed to the single cam).

Those arent bad cams, and not bad price either.

Give them a go, and tell us how they fair. Plus, good price for stock valvetrain components.

The Nissubishda will live....
