Camshaft Recommendation

Hello

I am building a stock 260 for my very early Tiger. See photo of block. I am installing a new camshaft and I ordered one from COMP Cams back in March. I am not sure what is going on over at COMP Cams but my item is still on back order and they are now saying late July. Every time I have called it is always the same story…next month.

Enough whining…does any body have a recommendation for another manufacturer. I have heard good things about Cower and bad things about Crane.

COMP offered a cam and lifter kit which includes everything you need. I would prefer finding something similar.

Thanks

Jim

I too will need a cam. What does Comp say is the reason for having no stock?

I forget how they worded it…but I seem to recall it boiled down to they were behind in production. In searching other manufacturers I did notice that their products were back ordered.

Same here ordered a cam from comp cams earlier in the year as of yesterday still on back order
might have to use the edelbrock cam that came in my rpm kit just like the newer design of the comp cams
