Guest digitalz Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 NOT!! just a comp cams xe268 in 2 pieces. broke right in front of the cam bearing, due to porosity i guess?? anybody ever had this happen. what a PITA i had to pull the whole thing apart. replaced with a crane powermax 1.5k miles ago. just getting around to sending it back. almost not worth sending it back when you gotta pay shipping to & from hawaii. funny thing is it ran for a few miles then died like i turned off the key. cranked it over a few times and didn't sound right so i stuck my finger on the rocker and the 4, 6, 8, 3, 5, 7 no movement. ran real good with this cam in on the street while it was running. tore up the front cam bearings a little so had to replace them. just sharing, kent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpyvette Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 thats rare but it can and does happen with most cast cam cores from any manufacturer if they were ever dropped.the cast iron cores are hard like glass to keep from wearing and are easily broken if dropped, now Im not saying you dropped it but its likely someone someware did,at some time, I had it happen with a lunati cam once that I bought years ago.
