Amazing service for special parts

Post by 911hillclimber »

Kent Cams, UK of course.
Ordered a pair of GE60 cams for the hot 3.2 in the Lola and a set of racing springs on Monday noon this week.
Not in stock. Got to grind them.
Arrived TODAY, complete and lovely.

I can currently think of 3 companies they should be running...

Great service gives me faith the world is not broken. I bought a couple of unnecessary shiny things from Sierra Madre Sunday night after wine and they arrived today… and that was going cheapest postal option……awesome.

I purchased a pair of cams from Kent a few months ago, the same as Graham,
they had to grind them as they didn't have stock. They arrived less than a week
after the order went through.
They are highly recommended.

I reckon Kent cams are the best too. I ordered a stick for my last hot rod, an MGB powered Morris traveller, I said I wanted something with just a bit more power but with a nice idle. My Morry did 115 in overdrive top, I bottled out at that. Some camshaft!
