Give Dennis a call at Reed 1800-548-2267. Use alot of his stuff (as stated) in dirt track engines out here. They will grind you anything you need. Use to have a catalog but can't find it off hand. Looks like a 288 @ .20 on a 110. Reed use to measure lift at .20 not .50 they are in Georgia and make a great product.

Well looked thru the catalog and it is a custom grind did not see anything close to that grind #. Sorry. RM will set you on the right track. Have a buddy that runs a big engine shop in the Buffalo NY area, and uses the Marine Kinetics products also, and say's they are great to work with. Sorry again I tried, Pete

Reed Cams was a well know custom cam grinder here in Atlanta. The owner John Reed was killed in an accident (if memory is correct, airplane crash) and the company slowly went out of business. I believe they sold all the machines and buildings off as pieces and not as an on going business. My engine builder knew him well and worked with him. If he can help, his name is Julius Hughes and his business is Atlanta Speed Shop # 770 356-3468. He would have any info about the cams John would have been able to provide.
