So let me get this straight youre saying a cam thats already designed for the GM 3800 series v6 is a lesser product and would cost more that a custom ground cam from a manufacturer who has nothing available for the GM 3800 series v6???? is it just me or is what you said com[;etley ass backwards? sorry but id trust the company who has EXPERIENCE with the particular engine over one who dosent anyday.......

It is.

A childish person will read the post, then fill in the parts he/she doesn't understand with BS from his/her imagination. This BS is used in a cleverly worded reply, to show that he/she has a full understanding of the subject. When/if the scam is exposed, the name calling/flaming begins.

All of the above, in a juvenile attempt to divert attention from his/her lack of knowledge, without realizing that this mindset is the reason for that lack of knowledge.


In contrast, a mature person would have read what is actually there, then asked serious questions about anything he/she did not understand. These are the people who will learn the most, in the shortest period of time.

Not a question of trust. It is a question of simple economics:

If, at the retail level, the price of two equal grinds are the same. A US cam, shipped to Oz, will cost considerably more (with shipping and customs fees) than the equivalent Crow cam. The Aussie cam, shipped in the opposite direction, will cost considerably more than the US grind.

Customs fees into the US will not apply if the value is under $200 USD, or into Oz, less than $249.99AU. If there are no customs fees, the prices, as delivered, will be closer to equal.

At this time, currency rates put Crow at a further disadvantage.
