Cam regrind

House of Darts · 07-05-2015, 07:37 PM

Any good machine shops in the Philly and surrounding areas that regrind cams?

The manufacturers are very reasonable in charges with a quick turn around.

check with the manufacturers also if the cam has been hardened many cam grinders might not want to do the work--- we used a Company in the Carolinas hafta look thru my notes I'll get their contact info--FED387

I'm just trying to see if a stock regrind will be cheaper on my Dime Rocket. Thanks

The biggest issue that you're going to run into with a stock regrind is going to be the inability to change the lobe separation. I'm sure that it is going to want to be tighter than stock.
If you do insist on doing one though, I have dealt with Camcraft before. They'll do the best that they can for you!

For our Mopar stuff we found for a Stocker the cam was
one of the worst areas to try and cut corners. The are a significant
part of how well the car performs.
