Default 1UZ VVTI Kelford Cams

I ordered some 270/270 Kelford cams and Kelford valve springs back in mid October from a reputable company and I'm being told that the cams were in the final stages of production. I was given an eta of late December. I was wondering if anyone else has had to wait such a long time for Kelford or if anyone even has their cams for the VVTI 1uz.

Regards

They're custom regrinds, not just off the shelf parts. It's going to take a little while. I was thinking about getting a set for my GS400, but I need to finish up my other projects first lol.

I'll be sure to put some post some numbers up when they finally do come in. I'm hoping the cams wake this thing up a lot

I know right , only in Cali. I have built cars in the past and sometimes they would pass smog if the cam was mild. I would have to see the cam specs..
