have you seen something like this?

I see some diferences between the teeth on the cams and the actual teeth from the distributor...there were 2 types?

The first photo in my previous post is actually from a 3B. I just used it to illustrate the position of the gear on the camshaft. As for two types of teeth, I am not sure. I have this photo of what is supposed to be an AAN cam "dizzy" drive gear. (this one may have been a bolt on). Definitely different gear teeth.

Think this happened on toms(audimans) 550+bhp S2 a few years back

Yes. More than once.
IIRC it was caused by hitting the rev limit or MAF limit hard.
I had to do an express nighttime delivery on a replacement.

Wow!!! I never thought that 1 dizzy can cause such a force against the camshaft!!!
Wow!

why don't you use the other tipe of cps?the one in the front of cil dead?You'll need a cam gear(as i imagine,your cam-gear does not have that flange with holes ).Also you should ceck if the cilinder head has holes for cps.They can be done easy.And you solve one problem for all.
What aan are you working on?
