When i filled out the request sheet i told them that i wanted more low end power which would explain the lower duration then the w41's, they might have other grinds depending on the power band you want.

[Guest]

With Quad 4's it's upper ban power you want, not low end torque.... you would be faster off the line, but slower in the end....

i want the w41 cams but i dont want to buy them from mantapart because they are 450 bucks and thats way over priced for me i just wantend to look for a company that sells them for cheaper

GM sold them for $500 a stick....$1000 a pair.

If you want them bad enough, you'll pay the $450 to get them.

[Guest]

the price is up at least 100 bucks since last year

[Guest]

I got mine for free, so keep looking

[Guest]

W41 cams off of gmpartsdirect.
Part #         unit price          S&H
24572402    $203.47            $40.69
24572403    $203.47            $40.69

I dont know why S&H is so much on them. I hope its a mistake.

[Guest]

That’s some what of a better price becides shiping. What’s the spec of the w41 cams .410 lift 218 degrees duration??? dose gmpd sell cam blanks??

[Guest]

gmpd has high shipping costs because they have low prices...which was the explaination that i got from one of their reps...heh.

[Guest]

That’s reasonable explanation I guess

[Guest]

this is the email i got from comp cams these are w41 cams

Hello,   the part number you are looking for is  a 53-000-5I     w/ a
grind number of 9011/9011
that is an intake camshaft.   You will also need a  exhaust camshaft
53-000-5E  w/ a grind number of 9011/9011
               I would recommend installing these on a 112 lobe
separation.
                   I have included 2 spec cards below.        These
cams are  $194.98 ea.
                                                           Thanks,
Hadley

you can get a pair of blanks from mantapart for $200

[Guest]

Then add another $200 to have them ground. I was quoted $125 A CAM to have the W41 cams I have redone...
