"The Great Cam Wars" should be a movie.

You can guarantee that at some point, some dumbass said: "You're only running a 3/4 race cam? I run a 4/3 race cam!"

OMG an old timers nonsensical thing! Back when every idiot that opened the cam catalog to his engine page, ran his finger down to the bottom of the page and picked the last (biggest) one listed. Then wondered why that car ran like crap lol. Probably from the PAW catalog


I bet Sliderule John has three of these in his garage.

Heh....I remember drooling over the PAW ads in CHP mag when I was a lad.

I remember those PAW advertisements used to be a 2 page spread within the first 4 or so pages of many of my mag subscriptions. I'm assuming they are no longer in business

Scott is talking about the PAW catalog that was about 600 pages long and each page looked as jam-packed as the adds in the magazines.

Yes, the size of a phone book. I just threw one out I found in a box

Yup, I don't think I ever had one, but I remember seeing / hearing about them.
