comp cams thumper camshaft
does anyone know anything about this cam? im thinking about getting one for my car? im looking for something aggresive but streetable. would this cam be good for that?
My theory is, if its going to SOUNDS nasty..why not make it actually BE nasty.
They make cool sound, not make power.
If your going to go through the trouble and $$$ on putting in a cam, put in one that makes power along with sounding good.

They actually don't work too bad. Exhaust timing is less critical than intake in terms of performance and the narrow LSA is actually closer to optimum than most off the shelf cams. I think choosing a cam by sound is a little odd, but to each his own! We did test one on the dyno in a Gen I flat tappet setup (in a pickup) and it did sound good. The idle was pretty rough but it had decent vacuum and made decent power. Better than I expected. I did not drive it, however. So, are they making them for LS motors now?

I'd rather use a Cam Motion custom grind from Futral than a Comp shelf grind any day. I've had very good luck with Cam Motion cams in the past.
