Title: Type 4 Camshaft
Post by: busnerd on June 11, 2006, 03:02:28 PM

I'm wondering where to get a hydraulic cam for my 78 bus?  I have heard that you have to replace the lifters and cam at the same time.  I see airspeed sells the cam for the solid lifter bus but no the hydraulic cam.  This seems to be the case at most places.
 
This cam is toast right?

should I try to find a good used one or is that a lost cause?

One point:
When I started at AirSpeed, we had four-hundred-something items online. Were approaching 2800 now.
There's another 10,000-12,000 items I have yet to add to the website.

We can get virtually anything.
If you don't see it online, please call us.
