Overhead Cams

We did have Piper make some cams but they seemed not as good as the pinned stock cams.

Ok, but to pin two parts of a cut cam back together must be a very special procedure I'am sure!
Imagine you don't exactly know what you are doing and the cam halves come loose
Would love to see the two cam halves apart and the pins showing. Did you perhaps make a picture of the cam halves as well?

Thanks already for the insight in your mods!

I will see if the cams are out at the moment and I will take pics.....

To be honest I haven't seen them yet myself.

Even the pace of developement on this true street Beetle legend is mind blowing :agree:

Is Russ's oil pump 3rd cam lobeless? Is that even a word yet?

Best of luck to the Pro Champ and team. All in one piece for the Easter T'ball this w/end?

VT20 for the fastest Beetle? Short notice no problem, Warrington. (I'll keep wishing!) I'd pay the £35 to see this even closer

Cheers for the pics.

A very old topic, I know, but I just ran into this and I couldn't find a link to it via the search so figured I'd post it here
