this is a shock... quoted $500 plus postage and then he said wouldnt be exsact,a couple of degrees difference to the megacycle street cam specs,also 3-4 weeks wait which normaly translates to 5-6 weeks might have to rethink.maybe new megacycle cam and rephased by hugh when hes on his feet ( almost same price). hmmm, does the 256 cam make much differnce?
Darrel sends his out to be done. Know a guy who sent his to Darrel, then the price went up from the quote, (after they received it), and the time stretched out.
Have you checked out mrrigs

a while back,he was only doing grinds then and no rephase ,( said he,d do the grind but send to hugh for rephase)also said he didnt know to much about megacycle grinds on another site.looks like he stays with the shell#1 grinds but with postage $50 ea way it still might be worth sending the cam overseas but will be looking for a few options first.any ideas.
opps meaning mr riggs not darrellRiggs has done a write up here on how to rephase the cam the way that he does it, I was looking into doing my own, you only need access to a mill/drill with dividing head etc....I currently run one of riggs cams & have had no issues at all.
I woud'nt bother with Tighe at those prices - I'd say they could'nt be bothered with your request, but they will do it if you pay the $500...

The 256 cam won't pull as hard or make the power as the megacycle 250-20 cam and why not have megacycle rephase the cam,while they weld and regrind the cam,seems the cost would be the same.
why not go to webcam camshafts, they have profiles for rephased engines http://www.webcamshafts.com/index_blank.html?pages/vehicle_search.html

does anybody have the email address for megacycle and web cams.both have their ph nums on their sites but no email.(internatinal calls are costly)
For wecam all you have to do is hit the link on my post and you'll go straight to their site, I've used the 59a cam in mine, nice usable street cam, with good performance.
