    Lynn, a lot of engine builders will have the cam companies grind cams to their specs, specific to their needs. This might explain why the numbers aren't in the catalog. Another tip, just because it says the engine was "run" on the dyno doesn't mean it was 'tuned' on the dyno, again, some engine builders will run the engine on the dyno so they can check for leaks, issues or apply a load to the engine for break-in purposes, etc. I'm sure Jerry can fill in the blanks here.
