Keying a cam is pretty damn common, it's not just a dmax thing. I can almost guarantee there is machine shop close to you that can do it.

People have been putting keys in camshafts for a very long time. If the machine shop does not feel comfortable doing it, they probably have no business running a machine shop lol

People have been screwing things up also and their knowledge or lack of doesn't stop them from doing business and taking your money while destroying your parts In the process.I can only recommend the shop that did my cam and crank I know there's a lot out there that can do it and do a good job but I have not dealt with them.Only other guy I know would do an excellent job is Randy's machine in Utah but he only does Industrials stuff now. LIke Sean said any machine shop SHOULD be able to.

Who does all your stuff damian?
I took my heads to empire engines and had him put my hamilton springs in and new valve seals and he shaved some off the heads but didnt feel comfortable putting the cups in so I told him I would do that myself so I got them home and went to put the cups in and found a bunch of pitting where the cup seals so I just spend a few hundred bux on a bad set of heads..
