Default A few cam questions

spoke to newman cams earlier (ps if anyojne has any bad stories about em plz tell me) and they'll do me a nice re-grind for 110 notes (special one for turbo application) which is cool

only thing is i need to give em a cam to regrind

ford no longer sell em and even if they did they want 250quid for JUST the cam

so firsty, anyone know where i can get a decent cam from (can be 2nd hand, just cant be fucked)

secondly, i wanna replace all the normal bits that come in a cam "kit" but what exacly are these?

im thinking just new springs, tappets (are these followers?) and pushrods... anything else? the heads will be getting hardened valve seats fitted at the same time, so it allneeds to come apart anyway...
