Anyone know of a shop to grind cams?
Prefer locally to So. Cal.
Thanks!

I believe I used American Cam Regrinding down in your neck of the woods. Check out my write up under the tech wiki, engine, scroll down to the post.

Be careful who you have grind your cam, in order to do it right they have to grind the core next to each lobe. Also the lobe has to have a few degrees of slope or tapper if you will in order to rotate the lifters. If that is not done correctly the cam will chew up the lifter and lobes. I have seen this happen a few times on bargain cam regrinds.

I bought a used one off eBay and drove it over to Isky. Happy with it so far.
