I`m rebuilding two true muscle cars a 1966 2+2 421 car and a 1972 formula firebird 455 ho.In rebuilding engines I`m stoped dead in my tracks! is there anyone out there that sells factory grind cams? I need cam # 9779068  & 9785744 anyone know a scorce? help.......  

Try Crane cams, they used to sell both, if not try Year One. Very cool choice of cars, 2+2 can't be beat for big car style and performance and 72 Formula with the big HO WOW!! One other tip, try back issues of HPP or the tech articles link on this site to read about oil requirements for flat tappet cams. It seems that modern engines (probably due to everything going roller) don't require the same high pressure lubricity that the old oils had and these additives contribute to emissions, so the oil manufacturers removed the additives. This leads to improper break-in and premature wear of flat-tappet cams and lifters. The answer according to Comp Cams bulletin is to use Heavy-duty Commercial oils such as Shell Rotella "T" 15w40 which is very popular with the diesel truck industry and can be found at most heavy truck dealerships, truck stops and garages. I can personally vouch for the quality of this product, as I am an Ontario (Canada) licensed heavy truck and coach technician with 11 yrs in heavy trucks and a previous 9 years as a licensed automotive tech. I regularly see big trucks with 12-15L diesels run 1million miles before overhaul and the bearings still look great! A local courier fleet uses Rotella in their gmc pickups with 4.3L v6 motors and has put between 3 and 400,000 miles on these little mills without ever having the oil pan off! The oil is good stuff!
Good luck  

Again Butlers and YearOne have the cams check out http://www.jbp-pontiac.com/index.html  

crane cam ,also ames performance engineering cost about 160.00  

I wish someone would have better data on oil.  I understand there is an independent oil testing facility in Midland Michigan that has data as a result of buying auto oil right off the shelf at numerous commercial auto part places.  I also understand that API does NOT test commercially available oil and that some oil off the shelf FAILS typical ASTM tests.

So us consumers think we are getting good oil, and read advertising that 'Engine builders prefer Royal... whatever, and that the oil tests don't match advertised results.

Oil test reports can be purchased.

(I have a 65 421 with a comp cam.. got bad info from a famous East Coast-mid west Pontiac engine builder and put in a Comp Cam 280.  Heads mild port, done by an Ohio Engine builder claiming work on Michael Waltrip engine (back in 1995) Not sure how the engine is, haven't pulled it apart 12 years later, but it has a slight oil burn even as it runs,, rear seal leaks.. but it runs great (Pontiac uh?)
