His name graced the sides of Indy cars and stock cars. Top Fuel dragsters streaked across the finish line, his engineering thumping away inside their supercharged Hemi engines. On the Bonneville Salt Flats, Isky was the unseen hand propelling such legends of speed as Mickey Thompson to record-breaking velocities. Ed "Isky" Iskenderian earned his nickname of "The Camfather" through performance-enhancing camshaft designs and brilliant marketing campaigns that brought the thrill and skill of a Richard Petty Daytona lap or a Don Garlits quarter-mile to every kid building a hotted-up car in their own garage. His influence can be felt in every form of motorsport today, and Isky lived long enough to enjoy the changing landscape of the industry he helped pioneer.
