It's probably an older grind that they no longer offer. The Holley buyout really ruined that company.

If I get a chance later today or maybe tomorrow (if no one else answers first), I have an older catalog that it's probably still listed in. I just need to dig it out of the storage building.

I think my catalog is a 2000, so it's probably in there. The cam I am running was purchased in late 2001, and it's no longer listed in their current catalog. A lot like Crower, Lunati has stopped production on a lot of thier camshafts.

I'll try and find that catalog.

It's not in my catalog... and it's 3-4 years old. Most of their hydraulic cams have a 3xxxx part number, solids have a 4xxxx number, and all rollers (solid and hydraulic) have the 5xxxx numbers.

I tried.

Try the folks at Bullit Cams in Memphis. They know alot about LUNATI cams. OR Call Jimmy Smith @ Jimmy Smith Pawn Shop and 4621 Racing 662 563 1714. Tell him Jerry said to dig out his old Lunati stuff, he may tell you to call John. Anyway those guys go WAY back. be sure to tell him I said he is from WAY BACK! LOL
