Yes the cam was run for about 15k before the cam bolt backed out and destroyed my engine. There is some light rust on it as well which I will polish off.

ummmmmmm, f'dat.
it looks like they hot glued a piece of sheet metal to make the repair.

No repair... thats the keyway channel, and looks like the keyway was removed with a hammer and a chisel. :lol:

I wouldnt run that cam even if it was free.

WildBillyT 09-05-2006 11:30 PM

I wouldn't run it for free either. And if I was the seller I'd probably just heave it in the trash.

If he can seriously ask $70 for that, maybe i can get like $50 or so for my '00 LS1 crankshaft....
