I have had Chet Herbert Cams in Los Angeles Ca. regrind some of my
more odd camshafts (such as a 348 chevy) with good luck. I would
check with him as he is very reputable in the hot rodding community.
I don't know the address but I think that it should be easy to find
in the advertiser's index of one of the Hot Rod or Car Craft mags.
Good luck.
