Need mechanical camshaft
 
235 motor with solid lifters looking to put in a slight performance cam. Anyone have a source?

12 Bolt Tom took over most of Tom Langdon's items including the "Corvette" cam that Langdon sold. See if this meets your needs https://www.12bolt.com/store/p546/23..._Camshaft.html

He also has another slightly different Bulldog cam.

My buddy used to haul loads of used Chevy cams to Delta Cams in Tacoma to trade for reground cams. I forget how many cores he traded for a reground cam but he was pretty happy with the deal he had. https://deltacam.com/ They also resurface lifters. That might be an option if other avenues don't work out.

I found a listing for Isky cams but can't be positive that they are for a 235 after I plugged 235 into the search

Heres an update on my cam search. 12 bolt is out of stock for 6 months so I sent the stock cam to him for a regrind. The cam was packed inside a pvc pipe that was double packed inside another pvc pipe and fed ex broke it into 3 pieces. So now I need a new cam that is either a 235 corvette grind or a 261 cam or a cam that can be reground to these specs. Anyone have a lead on a 235 cam???? EDIT howards cams says they have blanks and will grind to my specs. They wont sell to me but need to go thru a dealer. Summit and jegs are listed as dealers so I'll try that

YOu might ask Howard Cams who their dealer closest to you is.
