Camshaft manufacturer recommendation

Who would be the best cam manufacturer or person to have grind me a cam for a blown alcy BBC with glide. My car is almost running the numbers it used to. I'm slowly getting it dialed down but was wanting to see what a new cam would do. I bought mine from Oddy's and I think that was a mistake. He gave me absolutely no specs with the cam (or any parts for that matter) other than where to set it at and lash it. I have figured the specs and it appears to be an ordinary off the shelf "blower" cam.

Call TIm Cole at Comp Cams.

Absolutely the best person I've ever dealt with with cams. Super guy and extremely knowledgable.

Tell him Keith Davidson sent ya.

I wouldn't be so quick to badmouth an Oddy cam for a BBC. I've run both of his cams in conventional and Big Chief chevys and they make plenty of power. I don't care if they are an off the shelf cam, for the 100.00 extra cost I had my hand held through the buildup and tuning of a couple of engines. No cam grinder is going to know every nut and bolt of a BBC like Oddy. I haven't worked with Billy much but from what i've heard he's a good deal.
BTW on a 2300hp promod engine they say tweaking cams is about a 50hp deal tops. as long as its in the ballpark it should run.

I have had great luck with George at Clay Smith Cams. Great company to deal with.
