Re: [Chrysler300] J & K Solid Cam - Repro Regrind or Replace ?

[lettercars@xxxxxxx]

Hi Mike:
Way back when I did my ram K engine, I supplied the Chrysler camshaft drawing 
to a guy in Elizabethton, TN, by the name of Jim Hyder at Camcraft, Inc.  
Phone at that time was 615-542-2175.  That was so long ago, I have no idea if he 
is still in business. Perhaps some Club member in that area will know.  He 
reground my original, If I remember correctly.   I was, and still am very 
satisfied.  I am sure there are many shops that could give you an original grind from 
the Chrysler specs, now.
Regrinding works because material is also removed from the "base circle", ie, 
the area opposite the lobe, too.  Thus the same difference between the radius 
of the base circle and the height of the lobe (the lift) is maintained.  The 
lash adjustment then accomodates the new cam lobe dimensions. If you want the 
original specifications for you cam, I would be happy to supply them to you.  
300ly, Gil
