Well the gains I'm talking about are from a 3L hybrid that is built to soley take advantage of the new cam profile. This would be based on NEW cams, not reground versions. If you are looking to just slap the cams in a stock 2.5L with no mods to support the new power band......then don't expect to get a whole bunch of power from them.
But the cost of these cams should keep those type away.
The only issue with cam regrinds is the thickness of the harden skin. As long as we don't penitrate it, we're golden. I know my last post was a "spooky tale", but I wanted to demonstrate why we need to do as much research as possible to avoid those types of nightmares. But the re-grind is our last option. I think we're going to be able to get new cams made, so that's where I'm focusing on.
Bottom line for new cams,
They aren't going to be cheap,
This isn't going to happen over night,
and
If we can't get something that is worth the $$$$.....then it's down to a regrind of the cams (SVT) for regrind. I will be "donating" a set of SVT cams for the first set if that is the case. If that goes badly, then I loose out on a perfectly good set of SVT cams and this GB ends with shame.
So, before I do anymore with this GB I would need to know who is still serious enough to follow through.
I'm doing this one way or another, and other duratec owners that are looking to do the same would make it more likely to happen (for new cams to be built).
I know I'm not the only one here that wants them, so if there is any chance to get them......step up to the plate and help me make it happen.
