yea, these cams are VERY gimmicky... 
bone stock 5.9 Magnum. 2bbl M1 EFI intake edelbrock small tube headers and SCT tuner.
add one 5.9 Whiplash cam (222°/228° @ .050, .544 lift, 107 LSA installed at 104) and suddenly I'm putting down 285 hp to the wheels (nearly 100 hp more than stock) with more HP left on the table...my stock TB was causing me to build up to 3" of manifold vacuum at WOT above 4,000 RPM. Truck was running 14.2 1/4 miles at 97-99 mph with traction limited 60' times of 2.2-2.3 With traction, that 4,000 lb street truck would have been into the 13s.
not bad when bone stock it was lucky to run a 15.2
Gimmick or not, they flat out work for cheap "junkyard motors" that are still low compression, stock heads, etc.
yea, I forgot about your vids of the DAK on the dyno  you should post that up for him to hear/see in action.
it is not chebby lobes on a mopar stick for sure.
