i had a serious fittment issue with the skunk2 cam for my z6. thier customer service was aweful too. i then sold the cam to someone who made 130 hp with it i believe. id personally go with the 59300. i might buy one for my beater z6, just cause you can find them pretty darn cheap and they work awesome

I'm the guy BlackEG sold the skunk2 cam to. I made 130whp and 108tq with the cam, bolt ons, and a chipped ecu. On my head the cam went right in no problems. Here is a link to my dyno:

You have the right cam for the right model D16? I know for a while there people were just assuming that the cams from the Z6 and Y8's were interchangable. Some shops might still think that to this day...
