Default Passenger Euro Camshaft-'85 anyone???

I'm in need of one and our usual suspects do not have any. 16v passenger side. Got one that is pooched.



There is a hairline crack. Hard to see, but it's there.

Hard to find in the US since not that many later Euro S cars got imported when the USA 5 liters became the norm in 1985....

Let me know when you get it apart. Mine is a M28.21 but since I can't find a drivers side cam to match my pass side cam I'm thinking of just getting both cams made which means my pass side will be available.

There was a guy on ebay that had Euro S 16v cams. I saw it just yesterday.

Ok, cam is out.

928.105.187.0R is the one I need.


The ones on E-bay are for a 79Euro (so he says) which is a 220hp car, not the 300hp he says. I'm going to ask him what the numbers are on them though.

Yeah that Buy It Now price was too good to be true. Figured they had it wrong. I just have the cams&cam towers left to get for my Euro Hybrid build. There is a guy down in FL on Craigslist that is selling a complete Euro engine for only $1000 without all the peripherals. It looks pretty clean as well. I would buy it, but the wife is giving me grief. You could probably get your money back parting out the rest of the engine and just keeping the cams.

Now if someone was willing to buy this engine and sell me the cams/cam towers for $500 I would do that in a heartbeat.

Sean,
should I ask my shop here in Germany if he have a cam?
Most of the time the driver side breaks.

Karsten, that would be wonderful if you would.

I got a PM from someone that had a set out of country, but he wanted $1000.00 for it. I about choked on my tea when I read that. I'll buy that motor in Miami for a $1000.00 first.
