No, Colt Cams currently only grinds our 2.4LD9 cams.

Geoff at Colt isn't the sharpest tool in the shed, I doubt he'd really catch on.

Regardless, JBP is low volume, at best. If he's been able to keep his business going, it's not because of orders from JBP...

Rods cams were made by colt cams.

We are selling the remaining Tri-flow cams we have, which were ground at a previous date by Colt Cams.

Once testing is complete for the new lsj cams we will work on making new grinds for the other ecotecs, to be ground in the GTA.

Geoff knows we are using another grinder here in the GTA. I have nothing bad to say about Geoff and Colt Cams, they provide quality work.


Colt use to do all of our cams, we have found a cam grinder closer to us that has excellent work. It cuts the cost of shipping the cams to colt and back here so we can charge less for our cams.
