    WTB: 2.2E cams

    Looking for a pair of E cams in good condition for a mild upgrade to my 2.2T Sporto. Thanks.

    2.2 E cams would be MFI with the drive tang for the injection pump. If you still have Sportomatic, then you also need the other cam with the drive for the Sporto oil pump. Is this correct?

    There are two pins that go into the end of the cam to drive the oil pump. The holes are in the end of the camshaft from manufacture; you just need to press in the pins. (See part #43 in diagram.) Updated request accordingly.

    I believe that T cams can be reprofiled to E spec. As I recall I had Dougherty Cams do a set for me. It was cheaper than new cams.

    They can. However, per Dougherty, Ts cannot be reground to DC30s but Es and Solexes can.

    I have a pair of factory 906 cams with nuts because they are larger. George

    Have resigned myself to sending a good set of T cores to Dougherty to regrind into Es. Cannot find E or Solex cores to regrind into DC30s. Life is a series of compromises but this one shouldn't be major in the grand scheme of things. Moderators, please close thread. Thanks.
