Pictures of the mysterious metal piece, the #3 rod bearing, and the crank finish. The finish on the #1 looks a little nicer!

I was going to say just doesn;t look like normal wear, and then let go, Can the crank be polished out, any major damage there?

:dunno: Paper weight?

I’m going to have one of Lloyd Elliot’s cams for sale too (the LE1) since I’m going a little bigger. And some 30lb SVO injectors. Only 700 miles on them. Cam looks like new. This upgrade sure isn’t happening in the most cost effective manner!

I’m going to sell the block. Also have Comp double springs with titanium retainers to go with the cam.

Cam is 224/236 on a 110. Can’t remember the lift. Mid .5’s.

I paid $350 for the cam. Not sure what they are going for used. I’ll look around on some of the boards.

You have springs already?

I’m kicking myself right now for spending $130 on titanium retainers and not being able to reuse them with the beehive springs. New ones will be steel!

You’d probably be better going with the 306. I’d like to sell you this one cheap but I need to get as much for it as I can to pay for the new stuff. I need to find someone specifically looking for this cam if possible.
