I have been watching the old man since long before he was omg. Me and the wife watch his videos and I watch billy's videos. In my opinion there are no people more deserving than these people. I look forward everyday to what they're doing and can't wait to see what they can do with the help they're getting now from a lot of companies.
ISKY thanks for supporting Omg Src I really enjoy there videos. You guys supporting them is awesome I remember when The Old Man did a video about the Isky Cams. I had no idea how much history the company has and how long you guys have been in business. Until Street outlaws I never heard of Isky , I'm on the east coast. I wish you guys nothing but success, it would be awesome to see OMG do a video at your factory.
I love isky cams I remember being a small boy watching drag racing and seeing the old isky Logo on the cars my dog's name is isky you guys are just great and ill be building another sbc probably 406 and will be asking you for the right camshaft I love you guys and the old man.
I enjoy watching the progress of the Malibu and the rest of the content on OMG and SRC. And I’m a Mopar guy. The carb stuff he does intrigues me because I feel I’m still old school.
This is so cool that this is out there and Isky is such an amazing company to work with. I hope they have a list of the suggested parts for the rest of the engine combination
OMG is an awesome guy! I'd love to drive that Malibu, I watched the whole build! It changed my mind about how I felt about the Malibu's/Chevelle's after 72! Bill's 79 is sweet as honey, just the right color!
Thats a manageable cam in a 421....big for a hr but in this case workable for sure Run a custom grind I had Ron (or don?) grind for me yrs ago on my 383, solid roller. As usual it kicks ass love the way it runs and driveability is incredible.
I've run a few Isky's,and some are getting long in the tooth. I haven't ever had problems with one,despite install,and break-in procedures were skimped. I'm glad their is a company that is using technology to get better products, and not selling out to Commies.
We have the most advance cam grinder in the industry now and the newest design software. Check it out, there is a lot of info. ua-cam.com/video/g4CuXYU9uXc/v-deo.html
@@iskyracingcams From my first car back in the 80s til mylatest custom solid roller you guys did none have run better, harder and 0 failures. Sad so many never heard of ya....dont change a thing and keep making the older grinds like the mega, Z series etc. Love those they run hard for what they are. Tried many copycat brands of duplicate type grinds. and theres no comparison in the way they run.
Wish I had talked to you guys last fall when I had my big block 402 rebuilt for my 71 Nova, 5 speed driver. Getting 17 mpg highway with my FiTech, but think you guys could have made it better
Back when Bill said that Isky/Ed Iskenderian Cams (aka The Cam Father) wanted to work with Bill and Billy I knew they were going to be surprised at how good their cams are. They are the best (The Holy Grail) cams out there. I'm glad you decided to work with them Nolan they're good people. Congrates Bill on the OMG79 cam. Hey Nolan just a thought but what about maybe hooking up Vikki (for her truck) Tommy and Allison for the hemi to go in the dart and Kenny Frickn Powers (you can call it the Frickn Stick) and even Uncle Bucko for his coupe. You can call that one "The Grumpy Cam". I have a question for you Nolan are there any plans to make any cams for the ford 4valve modular head engines? I have an 03 Cobra Mustang I want the best of the best. Or is that a special one off grind that you guys do? Thanks Nolan and everyone at Isky.
Hey Gene, thanks and yes we will be helping with all the projects they have!! Sorry we don't have cores for the mods and I don't think they will be coming in. - Nolan
I'm basically wanting the same for my 496 BBC 11:1 on nitrous. 67 Camaro street/strip car power glide Ford 9" with 488 gears. Nolan what can you do for me?
So other then the lsa being 109 its like running the comp xr300 hr because the duration is the same at @50 and you would have to run a 1.6 rocker with the xr300 to get the 600 lift I don't think you would get to 7200 rpm with the comp lifters. Just what I'm looking at.
Hey Nolan I’m looking for a cam now for my sons 1998 vortex 350 small block. What else would we need to make this cam work? Springs? Is there going to be a kit? Thanks.
This company is a legend in the industry there's no better quality out there little bit more expensive but a lot better product than most as the saying goes win on Sunday sell on Monday good enough for Don garlits good enough for me
Still one of my favorite pictures is the old man with the cigar hanging out of his mouth with the cam father t-shirt on I think it was a Hot rod magazine back in the day still one of my favorite pictures
Ah, the forum gurus have shown up. Comp isnt even in the same ballpark, do your research. SUper shops as said sold a lot of cheap stuff to get people in the door. Lots of us have been using that brand for decades . Every single comp Ive bought has gone flat..even rollers. Truth
My question is this. If you apply what people like David Vizard teach, that LSA is wider than what it should be. By his math I come up with an LSA of 103* to 104*. So why is this so wide? For the record, I am trying to obtain an education by asking this. No ill intent what so ever.
It depends on the combo and is specific to what fuel and how the car is used. 103/4 would be a huge mistake in this case and would not only limit RPM but have a terrible idle. That is why it is so important to call and get a recommendation from someone with knowledge and deals with stuff daily who will narrow down what you should be running.
@@ritchschut1997 In his book, he details valve size and compression for the number, and raising the lobe center .75 points per extra point on compression.his chart is for 9.5-10.5 compression. If he is using 2.23" valves, and adding extra for compression, it comes real close to the 109. Learning this stuff as well, but many things to consider.
Im sorry you seem very nice but years ago when super shops sold your cams were no good they went flat or didnt work well. Now today none of the big engine shops use your cams.
In the 75 years we have been in business that has never been the case. If you read all the forums you will see that you hardly find failures with our cams & lifters since they are made in the USA. Super Shops only pushed cheap cams & lifters mostly and they did not want to pay a premium price for the good stuff. You get what you pay for. And btw they can be purchased at Summit, Jegs, Motorstate, Speedway just to name a few!
I dissagree. I have been there and seen it over the years people useing your cam which you dont see at the track. Seeing a street car that doesent even have a roll bar and one of your cams in it does not get me excited. The only reason he is useing it is because he got it for free. When you get steve morris or other top engine builders to use your cams i will take my comp cam out for you.
@@shawncarlson705 Well I guess most of the 405 guys and NPK guys running is cam must be slow lmfao you need a wake up call old timer go ask the 405 guys or the NPK guys about Isky cam!

Looking forward to being able to use that same cam..
Here from OMG, awesome stuff!!
An old man sent me here! Never knew much about Isky until bill. Its quite a history! Much respect!

WOW, if I was in a build right now I believe I would be getting in touch with ISKY !!!
I know I will be.

this is a great team up Nolan and a whole family of great people
U have a good guys a friend in bill , full of knowledge and uncle bob. I hope you guys the moon if you guys want!
I want the OMG Pontiac version now! 😊 Seriously, I’ll be checking Isky now. Wasn’t even on my radar a few weeks ago..
It makes a huge difference when the camshaft is correct
OMG is an awesome guy! I'd love to drive that Malibu, I watched the whole build! It changed my mind about how I felt about the Malibu's/Chevelle's after 72! Bill's 79 is sweet as honey, just the right color!
This is great!! gonna have to keep this cam in mind for my next engine. Especially since Bill is gonna do all the thrashing and testing beforehand!
OMG is a awesome family great to see the collaboration 👍
Thats a manageable cam in a 421....big for a hr but in this case workable for sure
Run a custom grind I had Ron (or don?) grind for me yrs ago on my 383, solid roller.
As usual it kicks ass love the way it runs and driveability is incredible.
Great Content 👍and information about your Cams
Have a Great Day 👍
God Bless America 🇺🇸

How Kool would it be for a "uncle bob" cam series of cams. Something along the lines that RPM does in there builds.
Dont think isky would name a line of cams like that?
Comp seems to love backwoods bait names.lol
Bill sent me 👍🏾
Great video and great information. My next build I will be calling Isky!
Now we need one for those of us that can't get or don't want E-85. Sometimes we can't even get 91 with 10% ethanol.
OMG SENT ME!
Great content 👌
Would love to see the numbers on the motor after tuning!😁

What valve springs do you recommend for this cam?
From old man's garage
I guess I’ll be putting this cam in the 383🤙🏽
Old man's garage sent me
Great content , Isky/OMG ftw
Does this cam work with Howard’s Retro Roller lifters ?
I work at GM where we make cams. I am really interested in your process. Do you guys have a video of your process?
Here you go! ua-cam.com/video/g4CuXYU9uXc/v-deo.html
Yes he does on the channel cheak it out.
We need GM to start making their good HFT and SFT lifters again. Huge trend these days .
You know you have made it when isky gives you your own shaft!! Can i use it on a 383?
Yes you can.
Ok so I'm gonna need 2 of these cams one will be on a turbo application and the other is gonna be on nos
I'm interested putting one in my (same as OMG) 72 Cheyenne what's the price? I guess I missed it
Bill's is 500.00
Y’all finally got cam blanks in I called a while back an y’all didn’t have any I need a hydraulic roller cam setup for a gen6 454
We have core in stock and are now stocking most of our part numbers again!
@@iskyracingcams Thank god you have stock now.
Never bought an Isky cam. I just might now.
Youre missing out. Top quality and run super hard. Never been happier with a cam company
You should do a mopar cam and call it the jefffica
So can I contact Isky direct for the cam or do I need to call jeggs or summet??
FOr a recommendation on the right cam call Isky first
OMG sent me
Hey Nolan I’m looking for a cam now for my sons 1998 vortex 350 small block. What else would we need to make this cam work? Springs? Is there going to be a kit? Thanks.
Def go with a matching kit, its very important. You have to have matching springs and lifters to get RPM!
@@iskyracingcams ok do you have item numbers on what I will need. I really want to get it all from you guys. That way it will be right
@@scottburrow8717 Just call them and they will get you fixed up.
Been using isky since the 80's
Same here....tried a few off brands when I was young, changing cams 1-2x a mo didnt bother me. Always went back to Isky they just perform better.
This company is a legend in the industry there's no better quality out there little bit more expensive but a lot better product than most as the saying goes win on Sunday sell on Monday good enough for Don garlits good enough for me
Still one of my favorite pictures is the old man with the cigar hanging out of his mouth with the cam father t-shirt on I think it was a Hot rod magazine back in the day still one of my favorite pictures
Isky make 2.3 ford racing cams?
THey been making them for many yrs...6 bangers you name it.
Now can we call and speak to Nolan if we wanted to?
He is on the phones during weeks when he not traveling to races or filming and yes you can reach him!
Today is Tuesday and 201OMG79 Wasn't on the Iski Cams website 😕 maybe soon
I think today!! Sorry!

Do you or will you have a comparable "drag and drive" version for BBC?
Yes we do, just call our tech line!
Ah, the forum gurus have shown up. Comp isnt even in the same ballpark, do your research.
SUper shops as said sold a lot of cheap stuff to get people in the door. Lots of us have been using that brand for decades . Every single comp Ive bought has gone flat..even rollers. Truth
Is .600 lift with 1.5 or 1.6 rocker?
1.5 rocker
What Isky / Johnson lifters?
Come over from OMG channel
Is the base circle .900 ?
watch the damn video bill tells you its a small base circle
what about bbc with a drag and drive in mind
you dont need 7200 rpm to win.many pro racers have at least 600-1000rpm rpm on the shelf when they run.
Like the cam but $500 for just camshaft seems alittle steep
American made is tough on prices right now but we will have a discount code soon for Bill and Billy to post!
Isky.. OMG... SCR to the front!
My question is this. If you apply what people like David Vizard teach, that LSA is wider than what it should be. By his math I come up with an LSA of 103* to 104*.
So why is this so wide?
For the record, I am trying to obtain an education by asking this. No ill intent what so ever.

@@derekmcdonald2856 Bill is higher on compression. still running a 2.02" valve though if I recall correctly
Cylinder heads dictate camshaft period
