Default Anyone hear of Cal Cams?

I lived in California years ago and Cal Cams was located in either Oakland or Berkley.
They sold re-ground cams. I bought one they said was a 3/4 cam, and had it in my GTO, does anyone know what this cam might have been, or if Cal Cams is still in business somewhere?

Not heard of Cal Cams, but the 3/4 cam was one step down from the full race cam offered.

I don't have the grind number. Do you have a contact number? That cam ran really good in the 400 at 11:1 cr or more with a 3000 stall. It still idled rough, and scared the neighbors, but was a blast to drive.
