They must be "fat, dumb and happy" at CMC, because they don't even have the intiative to try to drum up any new business. They had no idea if I wanted 10, or 10,000 of those cams produced? Not a single phone call was ever returned to us. That sort of attitude by an American Company doesn't surprise me at all. I run into it ALL THE TIME trying to get parts made. Some woln't even talk to you at all, and hang up on you unless you want at least 10,000 pieces a month.
Cripe, I can go offshore, the Chinese will make 100 of anything I want, at a tenth the price of any American Company!....FWIW......Cliff

I was thinking about asking Lanier Henry who is a part owner/partner (or damn good friends etc) with Schneider Racing Cams. They are grinding me a cam now FWIW...
