wtf...

**Pirvu Eugen** · 23 November 2010, 14:13

exactly my words!

The problem is that the 3B camshaft has not the same toothed gear as the AAN.
This one had also play preloading...3B not.

Wow!

i think i see this on a racing car.

It is at the end of the camshaft. I have a pair of AAN Cams and the material of the gear looks to be the same as for the rest of the cam. Dont know if this one is simply dirty or brass.

The cams are up for sale if you need a pair.

I think the early AAN "dizzy" (Cam Tensor in a Tuna Can) drive gear on the AAN intake cam is a shrink fit. You can see where the drive gear fits on the cam in these photos (one without the gear, one with) (See below)
