Re: FS used zex stage 2 camshaft for d16y8
 
no bro there are two kinda, one being a regrind where they take the stock cam and grind on it which causes more wear on your head, and 2 being a billet cam a solid billit piece thats machined down to the right specs.

When they "regrind" a cam they don't just machine material off. They weld material on and them smooth it out with grinding. Otherwise making a regrind wouldn't boost the lift and duration of a cam, it would lessen it.

i told you it was regrind to the same as a crane stg2 d16y8 cam specs. and a regrind cam has the journals and ---- machined i put a regrind into my d16a6 and i had to adjust the valve lash down so far it was pointless.
