I'm with you Mark. I would love to have actual specs on each lobe, how high it should be, the depth of the base circle, everything so that I can tell when to replace a cam. How much wear is within tolerance, etc. There would be more to it, like degree angle of each lobe, etc. But I have to wonder how many times cams were changed when they didn't have to be. Can you send yours off to be reground? I would check with the company above and maybe investigate the possibility of getting it ground, then put new lifters to it.

Its all a mystery to me, but you can take a stock cam that's brand new and get a performance grind, which is removing meat and it supposedly IMPROVES performance.
