Hello. I need to purchase an (original camshaft) for a 1970 LT1 350/370 restoration. Part# 3972178 . I also would like for someone,to (recommend) a place, where I could get a new one made to the original specs? (Thanks for your help in advance). Larry.

Larry,
I am pretty sure that Crane / Wolverine has an exact duplicate. I have the Wolverine catalog at the shop and can check for you on Monday. If I happen to be close by the shop this afternoon, I will stop in and take a look. You might also check on E-bay. It amazes me at how many NOS parts show up on there.

How much is it worth to you ? Ouch !!!

Sealed Power used to offer a "blueprint" factory camshaft, as well as Lunati also.....Sealed Power is hard to find the number for unless you have access to the print catalog. Lunati is easier.

I used the Crane Cams version; it has the same specs and it performs better than the original cam.

Bill is correct, we deal with crane cams

The GM replacment cams in the GM performance parts book used to say "made by Crane Cams"
