Cool Reground Cams.

So..... I got tired of waiting for people to email me back about cams or tell me "oh 2 weeks turn around time on a regrind so I found another option.

So if anybody needs/wants a custom cam just message me or post up in the thread. They are spec'd buy a guy who has been building motors for 30+ years and made out of only the best cores.

Your gonna have to dig pretty deep into the engine to install the camshaft and pushrods. Can the average person do this in a weekend: Yes I was an average person at one time with installing car parts. But you have to work diligently and make sure you at the least mark everything, and put bolts/etc into ziplock bags.

190$ + shipping for now.

You know I'm not honestly sure, I've never had anybody do work for me other than exhaust. I would call around and ask shops.

800-1000 is the normal rate for a cam install, alot has to be removed and its a tedious procedure.

That is the ONLY thing I like about the OHC motors, is installing cams is a hell of a lot easier.

General rule of thumb with installing car parts, though. If you have to ask how difficult something is and really have no clue, you probably shouldn't try it by yourself for the first time.
