its a long shot, but call either crow or camtech, [sorry dont have numbers] or look in the HKS/JUN/TRD ect. catalouge.
HKS probably.
why do you want billets? there is no real point in getting custom cams ground, all the work has already been done by big tuning companies.
well, my 2c.

Well yeah thats the thing, custom setup will require a custom cam grind. I have tried crow, wade, ivan tighe and clive cams and they all tell me the same thing. They dont know if they can get billets and i doubt if they have even tried though it will cost in the vecinity of $1250 for a reweld and regring on the cams. Unfortunatly the design of the 1g head does not allow you to do just a regrind and machine down the lifter block if nessecery becuase the cams sit on top of the lifter housing. Thus the reason for wanting billets is because the cost would then only work out to about $800 odd mark to have the job done.
If any1 knows anything about these i beg of you PLEASE tell me!!!!
