Dean Harvey at Comp was helpful to me. I believe he is in the same group.

To the best of my knowledge, he is. Dave McCarver is there as well, he does my circle track stuff.

I have had good luck with comp and lunati for stocker stuff, comp just has more people
that are in tune with what we do. Also comp has great recordkeeping, i think that is big
if you go thru a lot of cams.

I always talked to Gordon Holloway. Known Gordon since he worked at the RHS Warehouse, then Cam Dynamics, then Comp when it began. Sure hate to see him retire. Especially before me. LOL

Gordon was a great guy to work with. Helped me a lot with my SS stuff. Hate to see him go.

Gordon is a close friend of the Duke brothers, who are customers of mine (my buddy Ronnie Duke is still with his brother in spirit, I'm still working for him as far as I'm concerned). I liked working with Gordon. It is my understanding that he started scaling back his work schedule last year.

Gordon still works, but limited hours. I just leave messages and he calls me back. Gordon is one of my favorite people.

Isky too is actively invloved in S/SS only very quieltly for some reason.

Erson was bought out by PBM which is a parts distribution chain that focuses primarily on roundy round shops and production engine rebuilding shops.
They cut the line WAY back and is very small block chebbie heavy.
The good news about Erson is that they are still the best kept secret for Nex Tek valve springs.
That is the only reason we remain a WD for them.
Substatial savings over Manley for the same spring.
Chase Knight, I would buy from him regardless what camshaft company he was at. Crane is involved, I know of one fast SS car that has a grind several people worked on. Crane has two profile/lobe families like HXL Comp's

The HXL is close to this lobe, here are some general specs.
Crane
308 @.020"
278 @.050"
200 @.200"

Comp HXL
307 @.020"
278 @.050"
201 @.200"

I have had the Comp to 8200rpm, no issues. I have had the same Crane 8500rpm with no issues. IMO you can not go wrong with Crane Cams or Comp Cams.

I also know people who fly using UltraDyne lobes, from Bullet.
