Title: Needed: cam followers
Post by: Hiho on November 10, 2009, 04:38:16 pm

Hello all,

i have a 1.6NA (to be TD) head at the machine shop and i've been told it needs new cam followers. Are these available new? Also, what do i look for in a used set? Does anyone have a decent used set for sale that they'd send to Australia?

Cheers,

Matt

I checked a few more sites and most have 'em, these were the cheapest though.

EDIT: sorry I just noticed that partsgeek doesn't ship international.

Giles can also supply them, and he does ship internationally. I wouldn't bother with used ones in your build.

Maybe check to see if it's the same lifter on all hydro 8vs, then you should be able to source something locally
