$799 SALE price of hot rod cams on AM?


I hate bashing on AM because i do love them.

but they claim the hot rod cams as a february sale item at $799

They claim $949 market price? claiming a 16% savings of $150. has anyone ever seen these for that price? the most expensive place i found these for was $845

If you run a sale shouldnt you want to compete with other prices?

Late Model Restoration has these same cams for $734 OR $769 WITH a tune?

$15 shipping STILL makes them cheaper than AM

Come on American Muscle, i WANT to give you my business, but you leave me little choice.

Blue devil- I think brenspeed is about that same price.

Slater- +1 on that, I noticed it the other day too. I use AM as much as I can, but it's not always the best route. I highly doubt I will buy my cams from them (if I ever get them done, I've been trying for going on 6 months now and shit keeps getting in the way), but I still use them for other products. The FRPP cams are way overpriced for what you get anyway. But then again, talk to chris he may help you out.

True-Brenspeed is within about $50.
And just for the record, I buy from American Muscle and they have great service and reasonable prices.

PM a mod and ask that this be moved to the AM sub forum,

I bought my wheels from them in the summer and they worked with me on a discount to help with shipping to canada as that was like the price of 1.5 wheels.

There is not another place that would do that for me. I have bought many things from AM and have had nothing but amazing service.

that's where i got my cams. i had trouble finding the springs at autopartsdealer.com though. brenspeed has everything else that autopartsdealer.com doesn't have.

don't forget phaser bolts and valve spring compressor.

i absolutel agree about the customer support. it is awesome. i have spent alot of money there. and i live within there next day service area. so anything i order i get within 24 hours. BUT, if im not in a hurry, like i wasnt for the cams because im still deployed, i saved $100. that is alot considering there cams were on "sale"

slater- what made you decide on the hot rods instead of say the detroit rockers? If I go NSR I'll probably do those. I really wanted to go with the 127500's but with all of the supporting mods (springs, phasers, bolts, lube, tools) and what I would need to upgrade the fuel system, it would be hard to make it (have enough $$) by the time I want them in (this spring for cruisin' weekend in OC, MD). I still need new wheels and tires, and $$ for my gear install- the gears are the one thing I won't to do myself, I don't want to mess with my diff

Sale can be tricky. I bought a Craftsman screw driver set from sears for like $17. A week later I get a email and the screw driver set is on sale...for $20!!! They just the "original" price up and said it was discounted.
