Default Remanufactured cam??

Found this on ebay, thought it might be good for a 5.3 truck build. Any info or opinions on the cam spec or the seller? Seams pretty cheap, but how do you reman a cam?

I'd rather spend the extra $$ and get a name brand...

A regrind in anything other than an R&D motor is a bad idea in my opinion. I have used regrinds as test cams for dyno use only. I don't know if I would use one on the street if longevity is an issue.

like he said its like coping a key and u do know that sometimes the copy aint always the exact. When it comes to a cam I wouldnt go cheap i would get a off the shelf comp cam or have one custom ground.
