Yeah, that's why I was wondering. I have been looking at these cheap regrind cams, also found a 220/220 581/581 112 for a $125. What is the downfall of a regrind will someone please explain. I'm not building a track motor by any means, but would this cheap cam be a good investment for me?

Downfalls : you need longer pushrods and some say that regrinding cuts through the hardened surface of the cam. There's still a lot of people that run them though.
