I was looking around tonight and found this cam grinder..... has anyone used them? I also don't understand the way they describe the cams in a ##/## format I'm not familiar with? Heres an example...

INTAKE: 26/66 EXHAUST: 66/26

Numbers are an old school way to describe a cam:

Here's the "translation":

Intake opens 26 BTDC
Intake closes 66 ABDC

EX Opens 66 BBDC
EX Closes 26 ATDC

To compare this to others, you would need to know the stated lash associated with these numbers.

Also, as a FWIW, this cam would be referred to as "symetrical" as intake and exhaust are mirrors of each other.
