Hex insert for HO
Sunday, May 16, 2010 4:51 PM
Does anybody have a part number for the hex insert for the HO cams. I have read that they can be bought at a gm parts dealer. The machinist that is doing my cam said he has to make one and it would be $57 per hour at 7 hours. I can't afford that. If someone has an extra one laying around I would be interested in buying it from you.

I pm'ed Brad Wheeler just about 5 seconds ago to see if he could help, but figured it wouldn't hurt to ask everybody all at once either. Please help as my engine has been apart for three weeks already waitin on machinist. I WANT MY CAR BACK!!!! I have had enough of my grandma's mini van.(Thanx Gram)

Thanx to everyone in advance.

its less than $10 at your local gm dealership. they have plenty. its the actual part for the 95-02 power steering drive.

its not hard, really. depends on how professional you choose to be about it. a hack saw and a tape measure works but so does a lathe and precise measurement.

not a problem, man. glad to see you're doing HO cams. you will not be disappointed.

i guess i say under $10 at the dealer cuz i get a bit of a discount. so $11.19 is right.
