Anyone know where to get a cam dowel pin??

[FordRacing302]

I installed my TFS1 cam the other day and noticed they didnt send a dowel pin with it...I would use one out of the stock cam, but I don't have one lol...Ive been all around town looking for this thing and can't find one anywhere. Anybody know where to get one???

Who did you get the cam from? Summit? I'd call them. My Comp came with two (different lengths), but I almost lost them because they were in a separate bag that fell out of the box when I was opening it. Look around on the floor, under your workbench and stuff!

Thanks for the help guys...I ended up finding one at my local machine shop...Now heres the problem, the dowel fits into the cam sprocket but not the cam itself. I'm so aggravated right now

its supposed to be a (almost) press-fit. just tap it in (carefully) with a rubber mallet or deadblow.

I wouldn't force it. If it ends up being too long or too short, and he's hammered it in there, he's hosed in trying to get it out.

Like I said, who did you get the cam from? Talk to them.

Well after calling Summit, they told me to call Trick Flow and then they told me to call Summit. So I called back Summit and they said they were going to call Trick Flow themselves, get both of my dowels, and send them to me....Now that's a relief

See, now we're talking. Summit always fixes the issue.
