Not to go off topic here, but what's wrong with Buddy Club? I mean I know they aren't exactly HKS or Cosworth but Buddy Club seems to make decent, affordable stuff. I've never had an issue with a BC product.

I just would never trust something that cheap as they are not proven yet and who knows how they manufacture them or what they are made from, Engine internals is one area not to ever go cheap on.

Well, I've never known anyone to have an issue, but I was just curious to hear your take on it.

Carry on fellas

I guess the big question for our cams is how many different manufactures could possibly share the same casting? Included below are a couple of more pictures of my camshafts. They look identical to the ones pictured above except have the number one instead of two

clearly they are GSC cams. GSC them self has seen the pics and reported making cams with those blanks. all the other evo cam makers use a marking of some sort.

I have these exact cams which I randomly purchased on eBay and seller stated as GSC S3's.
Are these confirmed as being GSC?
