there are no camshafts.....

there are only "redgrinds"
where they weld on some metal then grind it to the appropriate dimensions.....this is a way NOT to go

this is a debatable subject, i think regrinds are fine as long as you weld them first, so you dont need bigger shims or buckets or whatever the 7afes valve train consets of, anyways reginds can be very strong.
