Under the circumstances I had going at the time (which are boring and not worth going into here) I had a very narrow window to get the cam installed. The cam arrived and I noticed a part number on it so I googled the part number to find out it is an off the shelf camshaft. I looked at the specs, and the specs looked ok to me. Although I was disappointed at not getting a custom grind, I went head and installed it. I really didn't even think about the fact that I overpaid until later. When I realized I got ripped off, I decided that I would never spend another dime with that particular vendor. I'm not gonna start a big fight over a few bucks, but I certainly won't give that vendor another chance to reach into my wallet either.

If it seems like I am being vague about the vendor, I am. On the off chance it was some kind of honest mistake, I don't want to drag a guy's name through the mud.

All that being said, the cam actually works pretty good in the car. It made 466 whp on a Mustang dyno yesterday, so I guess all's well that ends well. If I can't get the car into the 11s with this cam, I will probably try a GPI cam next.
