different from the stubs that Bill has gotten from me previosly,?? Ive had them available for the last 8 / 10 years, with both hex and threaded holes...
why cant an old cam be used with the last journals cut off? Sorry, Ive only seen these motors internals from pictures, but it looks {from the pictures} like a regular cam that is cut into two parts after the first two journals, what am I missing? Does it have a key instead of a dowel pin?..........Mike U
The SOHC stub cam has a stub sticking out the front about 1/2" dia and about 1-2" long that goes thru the timing cover. This is necessary to support the shaft when the chains are on it, RWJ
It has been brought to my attention that this post sounds a bit much like an advertisement. The reason is it contains several comments (proper heat treat, more precise, improved oiling) without technical detail.
I am sure you've received technical detail from Bill on why improved heat treat, etc, is beneficial. Can you add technical content which overrides the sales value of this post.
Note that if a post reads the same in the tech forum as in the classifieds, it may not contain enough technical content.
