 I have to try to locate a left side cam for a 1980 euro spec "S" before the Rocket City Ramble. My left cam broke. The end must have spun so the mark was in the wrong phase. I think when I assembled my second to last engine is when it broke. I had about 200 miles on it when it failed. I think the cam end broke and spun out of phase causing the right cam to go out of phase causing the valves to collide with the piston. Then I had the head repaired, changed the block and broken piston and didn't catch the cam trouble. I lined up the marks for the belt and tried to fire it up. The engine never even fired and I broke a piston cranking it with the starter. So, I need a left side cam! My engine is a 1980 euro spec "S" M/28/11 I also need to do a leak down now. I may have bent valves in my fresh heads. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Attached image(s)
