Hi all,

I've finally found the time to start the M30 conversion in my touring and want to replace the cam and followers whilst the engine is sat on the bench.

I've rung my local GSF and Euro Car Parts and both have told me they no longer stock the parts I need?

I've checked the website and it advises that the cam isn't available but the followers are.

So, my question is for any of you that have done the conversion recently and replaced your cam, where did you source it from?

It's taken me almost a year to find the time to start this project and I don't want it scuppered when I'm off over Christmas.

Any help would be appreciated guys.

Thanks

i put a shrick cam in but i do have a used M30B35 excellent condition cam which i'd sell for a fraction of the cost of a new one. Yes it has been used and the donor car was known so i can personally vouch for its condition. I've got 2 spare compete heads actually if you need anything else...oh and lastly i live about 15 mins drive up the A3 from you if you wanted to pop over and have a look.
