| Post subject: | GR cams |
Just wondering if GR used to do like generic cam grinds back around 2000/2001? Did he have a general grind that he would do for most road going 1275-1330's etc? Or was each big block cam done differently? I had my 1275 cyl head ported and hardened valves seats fitted by GR and he also did grind on my camshaft at the same time. Unfortunately I never received an invoice or spec sheet etc which outlined the cam specs. I understand GR is hard to contact so didnt want to go calling him up 15yrs later with a random question. Just thought others may know. |

The only reason he may be hard to contact is if he's out of hearing range of the phone or away from his workshop. I spoke to him this morning. As always he was happy to talk and give advice. I'm guessing he'll remember your job as he has a sharp memory. |

He sometimes marks the cam with the grind spec (i.e. RE13). Knowing how meticulous you are with photographing your restos, maybe you have a pic from back then that shows the mark? |

Unfortunately I didn't own a camera back then. Digital cameras were not exactly affordable in 2000. I used to use my parents Kodak when I was living at home and first started the resto. But once I moved out, mini parts were more of a priorty then spending money on a Kodak camera. I feel silly hassling GR with a random phone call about a minor job 15yrs ago.... |
