I respect and admire all you have done for the hobby and have often used the information you have spent a lot of time putting together. Thanks. I'm sure you have forgotten more about Model A's than I'll ever know.

However, I try to deal with facts whenever possible. I supplied links to quality cam grinders who claim they can regrind a stock cam to the same stock profile...and that they can even grind a higher lift and longer duration than stock on a stock cam. I also provided illustrations of how this is done by reducing the base circle.

Is there anything you can link to that would substantiate your opinion that it can't be done?
