Any experience of Real Steel Cams?

[Barkychoc]

I was considering the DW252 'Cyclone' camshaft for my V8S.
Anyone tried this cam?
I have a 3.9 Hotwire engine.

My 400SE hotwire (Chim HC engine) has a Real Steel cam fitted...about 5000 miles ago.
I believe it is the Viper Typhoon, but it was installed by 'brummmie' off PH just before I bought the car from him. He described it as a 218/220 profile.

Not sure about absolute power, but it really drives beautifully, pretty good on economy, and there is plenty of power and torque right from low revs, but really coming in at 3-3500rpm. She'll spin right round to 6000 very quickly without seeming to lose much at the top end.

Yep, the real steel ones work well, anything less will melt.

I had one of them fresh air cams. Still waiting for my timing chain and gears from JE.
