Try Isky.............I thaught they ground their own cams on their own cores.............
Blanks are forged or cast, not ground. Blanks are like anything else though, not as cheap as they used to be, so just depends on how many blanks "X" company has on hand. Special firing orders, like an LS firing order, require a custom blank, so those are always high. And certain grinds, needed for certain motors, just physically won't fit on older design blanks. So in that case, you are looking at a custom blank or a billet cam. Either of those will set you back a grand
Good quality roller blanks are machined from steel bar stock. There are many choices of materials, depending on the usage. Regards, Chase Monte
