Do you mean make a brand new cam or just a grind of an existing cam?

I need a new cam blank/core so it can be ground to suit roller lifters.

Thanks, Gary

I have only heard of one being custom made in billet and > $1000 for a one off.

Best to perhaps find a cam that's in decent condition and have it re-ground.  Oversize bearings are still available for the journals.

Hi Gary,
Perhaps you could give Clive of Clive Cams a call and check with him, he is about the only guy left here in Melbourne that has a good knowledge of grey motor cams etc. The other source used to be Wade cams but they closed about 12 months ago.

Clive Cams
4/35 Clyde Street, Ferntree Gully VIC 3156
Phone:(03) 9758 5977

Cheers,
Trevor_B
