Thanks. I'm very intrigued, will contact them for pricing. Do they build a
new cam, or would I send mine to them for modification? Likely the latter
unless I want to spend $500.

Megacycle's 2003 catalog didn't show a cam being produced for re-phased
XS750's.

The tuner says he sent his cams to Megacycle for regrinding.

Oh I'm quite sure they'll do custom cams. Just not a big enough seller to
put into their catalog...
