Roller Cams, the other aluminum head thread

It seems I have found a source of Billet Roller Cam Blanks.
I will make a phone call tomorrow. If the source is real, I'll post here.
Sure hope it works out!

Are we talking with pump/dist drive gears or not? I'm listening.

With hobbed gear in this case. Looks like he's got the capability, but hasn't cut this cam before. I will send a core to him and find out what this entails.
Joe at Roto-Faze makes the blanks. Crane does the rest.
This isn't going to be cheap. The grinding, plating, finish grinding and roller lifters come out in the $1000 range. That price doesn't include the blank.
So Ed, what is your source?

Schnieder had a Roller in the .650" range. Is that what your talking about?

OK. Looks like it'll hit about the same as Crane. The roller lifters come out around 500 bucks.
With roller lifters, all the heat treating and stuff, minus the blank itself, it's a tad under a grand. We'll see how the blank comes out.
I got a core from Fopar to send to the blank supplier. Depending on where they come out, we might have something. Roto-Faze hasn't worked up the blank yet. We'll see what they have in mind.
Looks like there might be a source for Billet Cranks as well. I'll research that too.
