Howards Cams’ Recommendation Form for Custom Camshaft Design

Howards Cams 1

With any powerful engine, the camshaft holds the key to making power…or not making power. Everything boils down to the camshaft. If you have the wrong one, or a camshaft not optimized to your combination, power will suffer. There are cams specific to nitrous, supercharged, turbocharged cams, and naturally aspirated applications, and all of them have different personalities. Having the wrong one in your engine is holding back your car’s performance.

Howards Cams has applications covering a wide array of engine platforms. Early engines, late model engines, and everything in between, Howards most likely has a cam for it.

Howards Cams has been in business since 1945–a business doesn’t stay around that long without providing customers what they need. Howards’ specialty is camshafts, but the company also has rotating assembly parts like crankshafts, connecting rods, pistons, and the like. When it comes to cams, though, Howards has applications for everything from the Ford Flathead to the Chevy small block to the latest Hemi engines.

To help you make the most power possible from your combination, Howards has this cam recommendation form to find out exactly what your engine needs. The recommendation form gets really specific; asking about your vehicle’s make and model, transmission, rear gear, intended use, tire size, and the style tire you plan to use.

Howards has way more than cams. The company has almost every component needed to build an engine, save for the block.

The cam recommendation form asks what engine you’re using, whose heads, what form of induction, and the car’s exhaust system. Perhaps the most important part of the form is where it asks what cam, if any, the engine already has, and what you are trying to gain from adding a new cam.

With this cam recommendation form, Howards Cams will be able to decipher that information and design a cam to make your car more powerful, and provide more smiles per miles…or quarter-miles.
