Message IMO you will have less haters if you take a softer approach.

Have you thought about why you tend to find resistance?
If you come at people with a hammer, human nature is to strike back.

You call out others as being bold when they offer you their real world experience that is supported by dyno data they
have seen.
Yet you’re claiming they are wrong based on what people have told you that simply looked at 2 sets of heads?
Likely they do not specialize in Z engines, they might not even have experience with forced induction.
Forced induction is very different and cares more about raw flow rather than velocity in my experience.

We dyno lots of cars that we have not built, after spending 25 years
working on the same car, you tend to see lots of examples of the different
available parts. (READ: LOTS OF DATA)
We have come across the mild cams being used in just about every possible configuration, from installed in used heads with all used parts, to installed in fresh heads with all new parts on both NA and TT set ups.
The one thing in common with all the cars that have run these cams, they all have a very funky power band. When you see dyno charts daily, and you come across a pattern that is less than desirable, and all the cars with the pattern have one part in common, it is reasonable to draw a conclusion from the data.

We sell lots of JWT parts, we like them as a company, we like them as people, but we do not sell the mild cams.
The mild cams are reground stock cams, when you regrind a cam and try to offer a low price option, it comes with compromises.
When you grind a new cam from a new Billet, it is much easier to grind it with fewer compromises.
What it comes down to is we only want to sell what we would install in our own cars.
Yes other parts other than what we sell and recommend will work, but when we know some parts offer less than desirable results, we personally would rather point the customer in the direction we know offers the best results.
