well exactly what do you expect them to look like?
I may just be imagining it but looks like they have a good bit more lift than stock as well. |

I've asked him a few questions anyway so we'll see what make they are.
I'd have thought he'd show more of the pullyso you could tell if they were stock or vernier. |

they are standard cams, look at the balencing holes, between the lobes, high lift cams dont have those,instead of holes, the wight is ground off, not drilled. |

a lot of fast road cams though are just re-profiled stock ones dan!
It won't mean it will run lumpy, a set of stock cams timed in properly will run lumpy but it will be quick. |

yes it will be.
Stock timign varies cam to cam, theres also free play on the pulley and cam.
Anyway if you have verniers get a bit more lift on the exhaust on overlap, should net you gains in th emidrange by quite a bit in some cases, power won't change much expcept in the midrange. |

"Improves proformance 110%". So surely that would mean after fitting you then have something in the order of 290bhp? |
