    That’s what I have heard. I’m wondering how much more or would be worth. Seems like it minor. even built not running 2. Only one person seems to be running both.
    @BillDaCat8 I’m tempted. But unless it’s work it with more work @Torspd pointed out is it worth it? This isn’t a quick change. I almost bought a set off a member a few months back.

    With the cams, the cam gears wouldn't be necessary. Communication with Kiel or other at Kelford would explain exactly why. We may have that explanation in this thread also. I have not looked.

    Yah I’ve heard both that he also said they can run together. Either way I have the gears already installed so curious the difference it would make it how much more for swapping gears for cams.

    Data logs would be the tell all. That would honestly be really good data. Especially considering that it is such an easy swap. The cam gears that it. Worthy a test.

    When I talked to Keil about using the retarded exhaust gears, he said "it will work fine, would be cool to see the dyno results when you get them".

    I spoke with him in early June. He said he's not offering them right now. It's worth a try though. Maybe if there is enough interest he would change his mind. Several people are wanting to purchase them.

    If anyone has a legible version of the kelford cam card for a supercharger, will you share it? The resolution of the cam cards posted make them difficult to read, well impossible for me. Thanks in advance.
