Used to be easier then youd think. We used to make our own billet cores for our inline six pull tractor and then send them to crane for the lobe grind. A pretty simple task with the right size lathe. Actually crane would grind them but they are gone now also.

:


When a "small" company starts making flat tappet cams of high quality, for 50 year old engines, expect the cost to triple. Same for the lifters. Then you'll need to decide hyd roller or paying nearly as much for a flat tappet.


Everyone seems to know what is wrong. Seems easy, just go out back, fire up your electric arc furnace, hire a few dudes and cast 30 BB Mopar fltat tappet cam cores/day, machine them up, and sell them for $175. You'll be rich.
