    Cams are OK , they used to be made by Engle , Hughes got pushy with Engle & lost the deal so they have them made elsewhere by someone else now , not sure how they hold up ? I still use Engle & Lunati cams don't enjoy dealing with Hughes so I don't !

    I have an older hughes cam and lifters, it works, but lifters are very noisy,and as said above dealing with the hot head over there is not fun ;)

    as a matter of fact you can hear em in this old vid as the car backs out ,they are really noisey, but I have about 50k miles onit and it still runs very well.
