K301 Cam Pin
 

Hello all, I just started re assembly of a K301 that I had bored 10 over and it seems that the cam pin didn't make it back from the machine shop. The butt end of a 1/2" drill bit seemed to fit perfectly in the hole in the block and the cam. I have some 1/2" round stock that I bought from Mcmaster Carr and was thinking I might make a replacement.

Does anyone happen to have a cam pin that they could measure for me? Diameter and length please.

Thanks for any help.

TT

As measured:

Ø 0.499 at both ends
Ø 0.498 at the middle

Total length is 7.004"
Both ends include chamfer ~0.020" x 45°

Good luck.

Thanks Paul, much appreciated! :beerchug:

So this is the piece of 1/2" rod that I have;

It was left over from fixing the mule drive on my son's 1450;

It was a little grungy but after I polished it up with some emery cloth and oiled it, it slid nicely into the camshaft.

More camshaft stuff;
