You have to buy nearly 500 of them and wait nearly a year to get them. Web recently made that commitment so that there would still be billets available.

  Megacycle has 750 blanks too. They acquired them maybe 6 months ago.

Last I talked with Barbara she sold just about all of them out.  They don't like to have a lot of their money sitting on shelves for very long.

Mike managed to get me a NEW 125-75 with his last batch AFTER they ran out and were only doing regrinds for a while.
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)

She must have more than indicated... as I sold 11 cams in December and three Jan and she kept telling me she was running out and did not know what to do about ordering more blanks, 'cause numbers are so high in order to get them made.

Anyway. Hardwelds are my cam of choice anyway. Better, last longer and can be reused if slightly scored or scuffed.

Got onto Debbie at Webcam via phone.
She who must be obeyed will have my guts for garters when she gets our next phone bill.
Don't know why I didn't just post on this forum I'm sure one of you blokes could have helped me out.
Anyway I'm now waiting to hear if they have a grind something similar to what we have been using.
All the cams I have seen advertised with the lift I need run way to much overlap.
I'm looking for .390"lift and around 260deg. duration @.040".
Any thoughts?

Cheers,
Brian

 Yes.....A Megacycle 125-75 matches the intake side for that. A little more lift....just a little.

There's going to be some blood spilled when "she who must be obeyed" gets our next phone bill.
Needs must though, thanks Sam.
