Lots of reading in this thread,

I've got 2 x na8 exhaust cams so I was going to do the in/ex cam mod but now I'm considering getting them reground.
Since these are bigger duration then the inlet cam hopeful there is more 'meat' for the regrind.

Im hoping to run a high compression (11-12:1) nonturbo 1.8 with biggish cams - something like Maruha racing 264 degree 10mm.

Anyone have a regrind done close to these specs? The 33mm base circle should be fine as ive got SUBS coming and would have to shim them anyway.

Clive cams https://www.facebook.com/CliveCams/ quoted me about $350 to regrind them, but said they would have to measure them first to see if they could get the specs I want.
Anyone else here used clive cams?

Not used Clive personally, but my GFs work use them fairly often on customer race cars.

Apparently they're great, and the guys there have a heap of knowledge (pretty sure Clive worked for wade cams before doing his own thing)
