Summit Cams

[RPMLegends18]

Has anyone used the Summit brand camshaft(s)? They show two in the online catalog; SUM-K6900 & SUM-K6901. I have a 360 that the stock cam #2 intake went flat. I don't have the finances to buy the purple shaft I want, plus I am not wanting to put alot of money into this old engine. The price is about $110 bucks, and that is something that I can swing. I am trying really hard to save up so I can build my 340 this summer.

Those are ground by Crane cams and there fine. They have been used by fellow forum members here often. The 6901 will provided better pep to the stock engine while the 6900 is very close to stock.

These guys also have cheap cam/lifter kits.

I came across them on ebay.

Most likely not t he cams fault. Probably due to improper brake in, or poor oil.

I had a 6901 kit in my Dart. Ran fine, but, just not enough Cam for my combo.

I have the .441"/.441" Summit cam in my 318 and it runs good (pulls strong to 5,000 RPM) but I think im gonna swap it out for a Comp XE268.
