Camshaft question

Post by Mercoholic » Thu 28. May 2009, 13:18

Hello! I have search in the Network 54 forum and here after a clue where to find a new camshaft for my -59 383 Merc. But If I have understod this right so is there no new cams out there to get, due to its different sizes of the bearings. But what camshaft will I get if I lets say order one from Kanter or Falcon?

Regards
Kid

Correct, cam bearing sizes and cam drive were changed in 1961.

Your easiest way out is to contact- -OREGON CAM GRINDING- and talk with him (very knowledgeable). He can regrind anything you want.
