Cool isn't it? I still get to visit with the people from Cam Dynamics back then. Many are at Comp now. Scooter Brothers is one of the owners, actually met him when he was at Racing Head Service before Cam Dynamic existed. I still get my cams from, and really enjoy getting to talk to Gordon Holloway at Comp. Mark Heffington, who started Cam Dynamics with Ivars Smiltnicks <SP?> and, CRAP! I forgot the other guy's name! Really nice guy too. Crap! Old age sucks! Anyway I think Ivars (we have lost him now) came up with the ten degree valve locks & keepers. Amy Faulk moved from the RHS Warehouse to Cam Dynamics. After Harvey Crane bought Mark out, GM hired him (great cam designer) to design cams for the GM V6 Indy Car project. They used EFI on those cars. Turned a light on in his head. He could not go back into the cam business.
He realized how new cars were going, with computers. He started Hypertech, making computer chips & programming computers. Amy Faulk works there also now, as C.E.O.
I'm very fortunate to know some really bright & cool people. I have had a lot of help along the way.
