PRI 2014: World Products’ Complete Engine Kits; Erson Custom Cams

IMG_4651 - CopyThe guys at World Products and Erson Cams, divisions of PBM Performance, have a good handle on what it takes to put together a successful engine program.

According to World’s Jack McInnis, “An engine builder can buy a carb-to-pan package from us, instead of having their time tied up in sourcing products from half a dozen different vendors, it’s one-stop-shopping. For example, one engine is based around a Motown II LS block, They can place one order, get one invoice, and all the parts are delivered to their door. It’s customizable as well – we have a 427 street/strip small-block package, and there’s also a 427 drag race package.”

In addition to the packages built around the Motown II LS, they also have other engine packages based around each of their engine blocks – the big-block Chevy Merlin III with a 540, a 555, and 632 cube variant, a 427 small-block Chevy Motown II, and even the small-block Ford Man O’War in a 454 cube displacement, with other combinations on the drawing board.

Each one can be modified according to the buyer’s taste; solid roller camshafts, different cylinder heads, and different compression ratios are all available and priced accordingly.

These guys have been with us 20-plus years, they know the product and what works and what doesn’t work.”

The company boasts a next-day shipping time on custom camshafts; once it’s ordered, it’ll be on its way out the door the following day, no ifs, ands, or buts. Not only that, but the camshaft will ship with a computerized information sheet right from the CamPro measuring machine to ensure that the camshaft meets the dimensions that were ordered.
