    Billy, EAA Air Venture ends July 31st this year in Oshkosh.

    Howard’s cams is in Oshkosh too.

    My guess is that Howard’s cams employees might be spending some time at the tech classes and air shows.

    What is the -12s camshaft?
    Is that a retro fit for non roller blocks?

    If you enter part number on Summit without the “s”, it shows both camshafts.
    I would verify you’re ordering the correct one.

    JWarley has the -12 in his 5.0L block according to MS spreadsheet.

    I thought you were using an Explorer block??

    The guy I talked to at Howards said they are having a hard time finding blanks to grind is the problem. I need a cam to finish my build.

    I would call Crane's tech line.  Give them your info and see what they recommend.  I've run Crane cams in my last 4 builds and been very happy with them.
