Camgrinder
 

The last 8 or 9 months has been very difficult for us. With the economy in the shape it is in, it has been very tough to survive. For a few months I actually took a part time job to make ends meet.
All of this is no excuse for poor customer service. Grinding camshafts is what I do, being a business man is something I am still learning. I just wish I could learn during a better times. I admit, a few jobs took way to long to finish. ( I apologize to Bill K.) But we did get a lot of work done in a reasonable time frame.
Thanks John

What kind of grinder do you have?

I have a Berco RAC-1500 and a Van Norman model 253.

John, good to hear you are still around and seem to be weathering the economic storm. This time is difficult for everyone.

My engine runs great thanks to your cam grind. It was exactly what I wanted.

Well John, welcome to the world of small business.
Control is an illusion and all we can do is take responsibility for our actions.
I for one have had great service from you throughout our association and will continue even through hard times.
I hope things get back on track and your business rewards all your hard work.
Cheers

John

I recommend no one else's expertise and creativity when it comes to cams. No one. Hopefully the ones I send keep coming, because I'd be lost on my motors without a custom ground DC cam.

John, I got a very fast reply from you about cam inquiry last month when I broke my engine and was planning for a rebuild. The project was aborted later due to a broken engine case. You definitely will have my business in the very near future. Keep hanging on.

Best,

Michael

Hang in there John. What you learn running a business during bad economic times they don't teach in school.

Best of luck.

Camgrinder rules!

John, you reground my SC cams to DC15 last year with a short turnaround time and for a very reasonable price. I could not be happier with the result, this engine runs smooth with lots of torque in the low end, perfect for my street driving. I wish you the best for your business.

It sounds like you've already learned the lesson about having back-up plans, because you're doing it. The best run businesses make a point of "keeping their powder dry" and making sure that they have one shot left when everyone else has run out.

Hang in there, the economy is picking up in spite of many people's efforts to fix it.

I have some cams I want to send to you for work. Sent you an email.

Hang in there. Best of luck to you.

Loved the work you did for me and recommend you every chance I get. Do what you have to so that when the recovery kicks you are still standing.

Good luck!

John I appreciated your responses to me questions a while back

I will hopefully be in touch in a couple of weeks with an order...(finally!)

Cheers

I replied, you should have an email. Thanks

Thanks for all the positive replys!

Kenik, did you ever dyno the car with the DC30 cams?

John is awesome and I feel lucky to have access to him on this board.

John,

We're all wishing you the best of luck. You've been a great support to our Porsche community in addition to providing great cams.

Best wishes.

Hi John,

Saw your story on Pelican... Need a quote on grinding 2 camshaft for a 3.0L. I sent you a private message as well..

Thank you.
