Has anyone ever checked w/Delta for a magnum cam for our engines?

Are you talking about Delta Camshaft in Tacoma?

They've been around forever. I bought a Chevy 350 cam from them when I was 17:jester:

They have a good reputation... Specialize in custom grinds. A lot of local racers use them.
They are also a warehouse distributor for Comp Cams.

They can make, or get, any cam for just about anything that uses one.

I'm sure they would be able to get anything you need.

I have a couple cores now & was thinking it would be nice to put one to use w/a lumpy grind for the new motor. ;)

I just called Delta Cams about a regrind. I was shocked to say the least! They can regrind a cam for our magnum engines for (get this) $82.50!!!! Just put together the profile you want, they can grind it!

Awesome, definitely going to keep that in mind. You might want to get all three cores you have ground- one with what you want, and two that are common NA profiles to sell for 125 or so.

Beats the HECK outta payin' $300 plus for a new one! And, grinding another to sell isn't too bad an idea. But, then again, the person that wanted mine could just order one direct. (shrug)

I would definately pay you $125 to ship them a core, have them grind it into a sausage cam, and shipped out to me. I have the sausage specs if you're interested. I would contact them myself, but i dont have any extra stock cams to send in.

Here's the link to their web page; http://www.deltacam.com/index.php Give them a call to be positive they can grind what you need. And sure, I'll ship them one of my cores for$125. It's boxed standing in the corner. :)

I'll give them a call in the morning, but they'll probably be closed. As soon as I can contact them, I'll let you know.
