Default Custom Grind Cams.......who??

Im building another LT1 car and Ive decided to get away from "off the shelf" cams. Im looking for a custom cam. But I dont know who to talk to, to get one made. I know people like Joe Overton, and Bret "something" (no offense intened there) are some of the best for custom cams. But how do I get ahold of them to talk about a cam? Are there any other people out there that I dont know of that are good? Any help would be great.

You could check with a sponsor here on LS1Tech: Elliott Portworks. They have a source for custom cams.

I did try to search for the topic first but the search didnt work at the time. So I decided to ask. I know this forum gets overrun with cam threads. But that works for me. Thanks guys.
