    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

My project is a 1978 GS750E. I am completely rebuilding the head in semi stock fashion. New valves, guides,springs and seals. Existing cams are out of speck so I have looked at Orient Express, Dynoman, and Megacycle. I will use stock tappets(shim on top). Bike is ridden daily but goes to BUB in August. Has pods,V&H 4to 1, and Dyna 2000 ignition. Leaning toward a close to stock grind. Are there any other options? Has anyone heard of Delta Cams in Tacoma Washington ? They have given me a price of $85/cam to meet factory speck. All others are in the $400 to $500 range. Welcome to any suggestions.
Thanks

How about the stock grind and purchase a set of slotted cam sprockets, then you can fine tune your cam.
 
I used delta cams for my boat's 351w - not a motorcycle cam, but pleasant and knowledgeable enough to deal with. I talked to Scott and have been very happy with the cam he recommended.

I agree. Using a degree wheel to place them exactly in factory spec would probably yield the very best results.
