Can anyone give me more complete specs for the aftermarket camshafts avalable for our enignes?

I will give Dyno 2000 a try, with some out of the air values from the stock
engine I came very close to the stock power.
I thought that I could just as well try to do it right, I will present the
gathered data and a config file for Dyno2000 on my site when I am ready. If
someone is interested in the resulting output diagrams I can include one of
those too.
I would like to try some of the available cams, for example the cam someone
bought from Elgin some months ago... If someone wants to measure the cam in
a MC or MC2 engine that can be included on the site too, even if my engine
uses solid lifters.
If someone has flow figures for the KKK K24 and K26 in our cars that would
be great too, I don't think that I can simulate an exhaust manifold that is
as bad as our stock units but... ;) I will not use any of these turbos on my
car but as a comparison that data would be great.
If someone has flowtested a head before and after porting that data will buy
you dinner if you get to Sweden! Any flow test data is of value for this
project.
If someone has recorded backpressure before and after the turbo at a
specific boost and power level that would help a lot with simulating the
stock exhaust and to verify the turbine simulation.
If someone has measured intercooler efficiency that would be great too, I
think that 60% is close for the dual pass unit on the 182hp euro engine,
what do you guys think?
A friend of mine in Florida did calcs on a Porsche engine with this program,
the simulated dyno run and the actual dyno run of the finnished engine was
within one percent! They had flow figures for almost every part in the
engine to get that close, but anyway!
