I don't know of anyone who makes that cam and has them in stock. MTi would be just as good as anyone else at getting you a custom ground cam. Just call them and have them get it ground for you. Anytime you mess with anything major like cam or heads, you need to get re-tuned for the best results.

I think you are looking at the T-Rex from Thunder. I bought one but won't be installing it until May. They are putting it is 346ci motors so it will be very fine in a 383.

Like Kumar said earlier, call MMT they will grind you any cam you want. The cam that Kumar is running in his 395 is very similar to what you are looking for. Give them a call they will get you what you want.....
