grind cam?

 

[trmnatr]

Depends on who you get it from. A std small or big block chevy cam is usually $340-375

Things that add to the cost
1) small base circles
2) 4/7 firing order swap
3) 4/7 & 2/3 firing order swap
4) 50mm and 55mm cores
There are some others that add cost but for the most part you have them listed there

I paid alittle over $400 to the door for a hyd roller with a cast dist gear. Some of the cost was to pay for the cam designers work to spec it to my combo.

what kind of cam; solid roller, hy roller, flat tappet? Some places are cheaper than other. Check out reed cams, cam motion, isky, and bullet.

If you get a cam through me from Lunati, most run around $350-360, all steel billet with cast iron gear, including small base circle. They charge extra for 4/7 swap, etc, and non-standard sizes.
If you get one through me from Custom Camshaft Company, they run $400, steel billet, with or without cast gear, 4/7 swap, and up through 50mm. Larger core sizes, 4/7-2/3 swap, will have extra charges. We do make cams through 70mm.
All their cams are ground on the Landis 3L CNC cam grinder, the Rolls-Royce of cam grinders, and then 100% inspected against cutting data, etc, on an Adcole. You get the NASCAR treatment, and your money's worth.
Sometimes they are a little slow, making cams for us is in at least 3rd place with them, behind Dodge(they are an engine-development company for Dodge), behind their NASCAR customers(most or all of the Dodges in the NASCAR Truck Series run their cams/my designs). Right now things are going fast with them.
I generally do the design for free if I don't have the right design already---I have hundreds of solid rollers already there---and Lunati is adding 10-15 a month, solids, rollers, hydraulic rollers, hydraulics, most of which are made on their Landis. Others are made on their Bercos, just like the ones I had at UltraDyne.
I'm pretty good on picking the right lobes for everything from the 12s to the high 6s in the quarter mile. Give me a call if I can help you.

You still have not answered the most important question
What kind of cam
Everyone is assuming a roller
I am sure Harold can & will give you a decent cam recommendation but it helps to know what you want,,

 

[cstraub]

Solid flat tappet is $275 plus $185 for EDM lifters.

 

[jaywill]

i,m not going custom cam now to costly right now....
thanks

If you can't afford a custom cam, you can't afford a solid roller either.

 

[cv67]

Just get an off the shelf solid flat tappet, there are bazillions of grinds done for Chevys and they dont have to cost alot. Save up then go for the roller.

 

[fabio]

I bought a reed flat tappet with lifters for under 200 bucks. Every grind is custom, might want to check them out. Plus it was on a p55 core, can't beat that deal.

 

[jaywill]

if You Can't Afford A Custom Cam, You Can't Afford A Solid Roller Either.

What The " H " U Mean??..... I Just Got Rid Of A 412 Sb With A Solid Roller..........?



I ordered a cam now so thanks guys

Jaywill,

BBC off-the-shelf Voodoo roller cams are under $335, roller lifters, $330 to $345 for horizontal bar and vertical bar lifters, springs about $330. In other words, about $1,000 for steel billet roller cam with EverWear Gear, decent roller lifters, and proper valve springs.
A BBC VooDoo solid lifter cam and matching solid lifters runs a little over $220.
The Voodoo solid lifter profiles have identical .050 duration values as the VooDoo roller profiles, but less valve lift, naturally. They are very aggressive profiles, with a wide band of torque.
Rollers make more power, but they cost more. The VooDoo solid lifter profiles match or beat other cam companies street rollers.......
