That's one of my questions...What is a short cam? I would assume, as the
owner planned on making this car a performance or race type car that a short
cam has something to do with that...Can't ask the owner about it...as he's
off looking for another job, out of town and the wife is clueless on what it
means...The dealership is as per a dealership...No help.... Oh, well...:-)
