Default Re: "Old School" Stocker Cams

I still run the same old square lobe cams that I ran in 80s -90s
that Richard @ Isky used to build for me in all my Stockers.
Not easy on the valve train but I still run Schubeck lifters and plenty
of spring pressure. I am old school.

Don Studley worked with Richard in developing a lot of those lobes, especially the Mopar Small Block cams. I believe Don's car was the test bed for the Isky Cams pieces.

I still have an Isky cam in my 340. I got it from Don Studley in 1998. Isky had two, if you ordered one from them you got their grind and if you ordered one from Don you got his grind. I had both and Don’s was faster.
Does Isky still make stocker cams?

Not that I know of anymore......I still have a 1/2 dozen or more extra. Also have one in Jon's 400 and it is pretty fast too.

My old friends (RIP) Don Studley and Al Etter generated the FAST cams. I wish I know today 1/10 of what they used to
know......Al was my BEST FRIEND. He had a bedroom in his home set up for me to come down and work on my stuff
with his help.

Last days to get stupid suggestions of 2019 in. This guy didn’t wait. That’s good. All those who don’t race Stock shouldn’t get to make any suggestions about rule changes for those who do.

Not even close.

After the valve spring rules were relaxed, stock rockers were mandated for several years. Finally allowing quality after market rocker arms was a common sense rule change.
