Hi to all,
I'm getting ready to have the original 2.0 rebuilt. The only mod will be some Euro Kolbenschmidt P&Cs. Everything else will be stock. I will keep the D-jet. I have my parts li$$$t ready and the only thing I am having difficulty making a choice is on the camshaft and lifter combo. I searched the forum and most posts refer to cam choices for carbed engines or 2056, with Raby cams (9550) and WebCams (73) highly regarded. There just isn't that much info on stock grind and there even is doubt on the specs from different vendors. Major vendors who offer stock cams are EMW, Scat, CBPerformance, Type4store, WebCam and Pelican. Prices vary from $200 to $1000. Anyone have recommandations or should I just go with a factory cam from Pelican with the Febi lifters? Thanks for your help. |

Thank you to all for your input. I think I will send the best camshaft I have laying around to Elgin and see what they can do with it. I'll give them a call on Monday to see what they recommend for the lifters.
By the time the engine will be ready for reassembly, I may get lucky and find a NOS combo and use the rebuilt on the next engine he build. |

Try German Supply in Toronto for the lifters and Bug City in CT. For lifters and Cam. That’s where I found mine. Good luck! |
