I have a friend that needs to replace the cam in his GLH and would like to go roller. The junkyards in the area are dried up or pillaged - anyone have the cam, followers, everything? Please? :eyebrows:

Yeah, I have a "0" overlap turbo cam and followers. $50+ ship

I think IIRC to go roller you need cam caps that are machined with the grooves for oiling(I will confirm this). Is he looking for a particular year of roller?
It is the other way around. Slider cams get the grooved caps for oiling.

Sorry folks - I really appreciate the offers - he found he needs more extensive work than just replacing the cam and is no longer looking. I really need to get him to sign up here himself :confused2:

Actually, both slider and some roller cams use the machine oil grooves. Up to 89 I beleive.
