Default How to order a custom grind cam?

I want a Comp cam 212/218 but on a 112 lsa instead of a 115 lsa. How do I order a custom grind? Do I have to go through a shop or can i get a decent price straight through comp. And by decent price I mean 375 - 400 range.
Unless someone can suggest me a better cam on a 112 lsa? Ive also been considering a TR220

I'm pretty sure Thunder Racing does custom grinding for a bit over $400.

Look in the Comp catalog or on the net... Get your lobe numbers, call up and give them the numbers.

Here's a better question, in my opinion; what's wrong with 115 LSA?

choose the XE lobes
212 .558
218 .563

112 LSA
110 ICL

I believe both the low and high lift versions of that cam are either 114+2 (low lift) and 15+2 (high lift)
