Default 32 valve cams & mag covers FS: great condition

These 4 cams are just removed from a 1985 32 valve 5 liter motor. Chain sprockets are all very sharp and no signs of abmormal wear. All lobes look very normal
With no flat ends. Use them for a tired engine head rebuild or get them re ground for a hot motor with port work and free up some hidden horsies. $200 shipped for all 4 cams

I have both magnesium cylinder head covers as well in good shape medium amount of paint peel but great for getting that crinkle coat powder paint job you have always wanted! $150 shipped for set


Pm me if interested further merry christmas

Make sure the front cam caps stay with the heads if you plan to sell the heads separately. Great price on S3 cams!

As the cams in the photo do not look "full length" as S3 (85/86) cams should, I would suggest posting the casting numbers as well as the stamped numbers from each cam.

With the numbers along with feedback from forum members, the cam set can likely be confirmed as which 928 32V cams these are.

They may have been in an S3 motor but they don't look like S3 cams. On the rear end of the cams there should be a three digit number and a 2-digit number stamped in the metal. What are the 2-digit numbers on each cam?

Are you able to tell what the numbers are that are stamped on the very end of the cam face?

So they are in series 291 293 & other bank is 292 & 294 then 3 of them say 04 and one says 02

Hope this helps?

So the everything seems to be correct except for the 02 on cam 294. Does anyone have an idea on that?
