    *CANCELLED* Roller cam setup for a T1

    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?

    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

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