I'm shopping for a camshaft for my 48 and I can't decide. I really don't want a cheap Chinese one but that's all I see. Even the $555 Egge one is from China/Taiwan.

And with pistons the Egge ones have a chamfer on top for some reason. I priced forged from Ross and those run $1500. It would be nice to run modern rings but ouch!

What have y'all used?

He's got great prices for sure but it's all Chinese stuff. I've already bought some things from him and plan on ordering more.
