exhaust cam

[Rabbit16v@attbi.com (Rabbit16v)]

Delta here in Tacoma, WA does something to their regrinds.  It looks like
some kind of wavy wide patch down the middle of the lobe that only leaves
about an 1/8th of an inch of raw steel on the edges.  I don't know if it's a
coating or heating or what but I used one of their G-grind cams for about a
year and when I took it out it still had the pattern on it.

Would think regrinding without re-case hardening the lobes would give you a
cam that would wear out in a few thousand miles. So, it depends on the
quality standards of the regrinder...if they case harden after grinding, you
should be okay.

  Wow, thats a deal.. $200 to get a set of 260/276's

  The question is- does grinding them like this cause them to lose any of
  their strength or wear resistance? I remember reading about autotech cam
  lobes flattening off - would reground cams be more likely to suffer this
  fate (more likely than stock)?
