Default Camshaft: New vs Regrind

I'm asking this to generate comments from the many very knowledgeable folks on the Barn. I want another Isky 1007b cam and I have a nice used 8cm cam to use for a regrind, and Isky has told me no problem to grind me a new one on a new billet, even it's no longer one of their catalog cams. The price is about double, regrind vs new. Aside from price, what are you're comments about this? My current engine build has a 1007b regrind by PETE, and all looks good, however the adjuster bolts on the Johnson lifters are farther out than I'm used to seeing due to the smaller base circle. I am really open to any comments and suggestions. Thanks.
