Default Interest in a HondaSaver Cam/Package group buy?

Rocket and I have been talking about starting a group buy on his cams and/or an entire head package. If enough people jumped on, the prices would be quite impressive. The package would include HondaSaver cams, valvesprings and retainers. Prices would be in the neighborhood of $800-850 for the cams alone, and $1000-1100 for the head package.

Let me know how many of you would be interested. We will have numbers to post in about 3 weeks of his cams in a built B18C1 with a fully HondaSaver worked head.

LS N/A cams are already available, turbo cams are in the works. By the time the groupbuy will take place, i BELIEVE they will be in production. Ill have to talk to Rocket more about that one.

Sup Scott, Nice meeting you on Saturday.

There is already a Z6 cam in production, but agian it is a NA based cam. Im not sure about a turbo SOHC cam. If it is available, obviously the package price will be significantly lower.

Alright here's some tech info.

Turbo LS cams are in development. Rocket is fine tuning the NA B-series and D16Z6 cams before starting a whole new design to ensure top notch quality.

The duration on the prototype LS turbo cams will be between 260 and 265 degrees.

Duration on Z6 cam is 274 degrees. with 11mm of lift.

Retainers weigh in at 5 grams.

Springs are are rated at 265 lbs at 12.5mm lift.

Z6 cam runs at $350 or $550 for the head package.

let me know if you have any more questions.

Our test car will be estimated to redline at, or near 10,000rpm. Should make power all the way to redline.
