Posted May 13, 200618 yr comment_167395 Look at this pic... Would you pay $350 for this cam? I sent it back and it came back with a new dowel pin. Same camshaft that had been returned with a broken shoulder. Help! Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/20032-sold-a-bad-camshaft/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
May 13, 200618 yr comment_167404 Who did you buy this from? Let us know so we can all avoid this obviously incompetent organization. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/20032-sold-a-bad-camshaft/#findComment-167404 Share on other sites More sharing options...
May 13, 200618 yr comment_167406 Could be one idiot at an otherwise worthwhile business. I'd call and explain what happened and ask them to call tag it and make it right. Email them a picture. If they don't respond well, then smear their name on the net.

May 14, 200618 yr Author comment_167456 I received this cam and it was damaged. I sent pics to the grinder and he said to send the cam back and he would cover the shipping. I did. He simply took out the damaged dowel and replaced it. The cam sprocket shoulder is still cracked. He returned it yesterday with the new dowel. I sent him another pic and asked him if he would pay $350 for this damaged cam. I will wait until I get a final answer (or a new cam) before I divulge his name. He may not have done this modification. I am betting it was someone in his shop. We will see.

May 14, 200618 yr Author comment_167485 The owner is sending me a new cam. He said to destroy the damaged cam. I will let you know when I receive the replacement cam!

May 15, 200618 yr Author comment_167576 I think someone in his shop tried to sell this camashaft with the crack. When I returned it per his instructions the same person tried again. Once He knew what I had, he said to discard the cam and he would send me a new one. He is a good person. I will see how he responds to his promise.
