I am about to have some camshafts made for a customer, and I was wondering how many people where honestly interested in a set of aftermarket cams. Let me know.

I'd be interested if the cost is right...
So I second the question above... cost?

Some of the cost depends on demand. I'll let you know.

Well, not to be a stickler on this but an estimated cost is going to affect your demand. Got a range?

Boy, this is interesting. What would be great is for you to make a set as prototype (try and get SVE specs for their "racing cams" that the Touring guys run, or just educated guess). Install them in a fairly well modified SVT (your "project car") and dyno the thing. See what the cams are worth so we could see if they are worthwhile to us. Problem is, we have no clue what a hot cam set would do for an SVT. Only guy here with hot cams is running thenm on a 3L, along with big valves and a bunch of stuff.
This is obviously a big commitment on your groups part and I'll understand if its not possible. Thanks for showing the interest in any event.

specs and cost would really help. the word "cams" doesn't say much about what is being made...
