I think thats what I am going to start calling my custom grind cam. Its not technically a "sidewinder", because it was ordered from Comp Cams, ground to "sidewinder" specs. The specifiations include advertised duration of 265/265, 212/212 @ .050, .540/.540" lift, 114 lsa. So that IMO makes it a Comp 265.

Nope not bigger, just using a different specification.

Sidewinder cam

Duration @ .006" = Intake 265* Exhaust 265*
Duration @ .050" = Intake 212* Exhaust 212*
Lift = .525 or .540" depending on who you believe for rocker ratio (at first I believed Comp, but Sam and Stu have convinced me otherwise, so I list it as .540" now).
LSA = 114*
ICL = 110*

Here is a Comp 260H-13

Duration @ .006" = Intake 260* Exhaust 264*
Duration @ .050" = Intake 208* Exhaust 212*
Lift = .522/.525
LSA=113*
ICL=113*

Here is a Comp 268H-13

Duration @ .006" = Intake 268* Exhaust 272*
Duration @ .050" = Intake 216* Exhaust 220*
Lift = .528/.531
LSA=113*
ICL=113*

Comp had a line of of RV/Towing cams that included the 265 DEH grind, it measured 265* @ .006 on the intake lobe, that is where I thought of it from. 264 vs. 265 who cares.
