Bought used on eBay. It was apparently used in a race car's engine for a pretty short time before the car was wrecked and parted. It looks brand nearly brand new.

Specs on the R cam (taken from the KgTriming catalog, with some other stock cams. I'm a little vague on what they are calling 'nock-vinkel' but I'm guessing it is the point (measured in degrees) of highest lift on the intake lobe???


Grind Lift Duration Nock Vinkel
A 8.9 248 111
C 9.9 264 111
D 10.8 280 111
K 10.8 277 111
F 11.4 300 111
R 11.6 287 102
S 12.9 300 101

And their own cams:
KG10 11.1 280 110
KG17 11.1 285 107
KG19 (I)12.4 312 105
(E)11.25 292
KG6 12.54 312 105
KG5 12.9 320 104
MR3 13.9 320 103
MR1 13.9 320 101

I'm no cam wizard so I wouldn't necessarily know how those specs would translate into driving characteristics. I was planning on getting a KG19 or KG6 cam for my car, but stumbled across the R cam on eBay for such a low price I had to get it instead.
