Default Fab9 cam question

Does anyone have information as to what the specs of the 1.8L fab9 turbo cams are? Like lift, duration (at what lift), and lobe separation angle. Thanks.

Here's the link for reference:

Certainly seems like something a vendor selling cams would publish about them.

Yep. I've emailed them twice and called them twice after seeing no details on the website. It's been about a month now with no answer

Well with that sort of experience so far i can only imagine that the purchasing would go smoothly without hiccup.

I don't think anyone on here has successfully bought a set of them, and if they did, chances they also had access to the tools to accurately measure for specs are slim. Keep on waiting for a response my dude. :(

I think the general consensus was that you just shouldn't even buy them.

Yea, Ive seen the cams on their website before and thought to myself...." I wonder what the cam specs are, might be good to know that ". Its a secret noone can know, its the most special cam set in existence. If you run them your car will turn into a wooly mammoth and itll destroy everything in its path, also I like turtles.

I think they are focusing their best efforts to their engine assembly program. Results are stellar so far.

I wonder if they run their mystery cams in their builds. I personally dont like to know cam specs, I like a good surprise when I buy engine parts.

I heard that fab9 doesn't even know what the specs are until they call the manufacturer and ask what open box returns they have laying around that they can buy for pennies on the dollar and resell as brand new. But that might just be, you know, a rumor.
