Camshaft regrinding for fuel economy

I am going to be working on getting my (first car!) 1993 Toyota Tercel running again over winter. While I've been going through some spare parts I have, I found a spare camshaft for it. I know the metro guys see some pretty nice mileage gains from swapping to the XFI cam. I also know that those lucky guys can get their camshafts reground at Delta Cams for $50!

So, anyway, I emailed Delta and asked about regrinding my Tercel camshaft and asked for a quote.

Can anyone recommend any other shops? Anything I should look out for, or is this something that basically any cam shop can do?
