camshaft

Hi to every one, First time on here and first time owner of a cf bedford, its a 1982 350 with a 2.3 slant engine, has a Pioneer body, and have only had it 4 month.and nothing but problems with the old girl, to many things to list here and bore you all, so I will cut to the problem I have now... I am in need of a camshaft housing or a complete camshaft and housing, one of the tappet adjuster screws has damaged the tappet bucket guide, got some one to fit a new head gasket and it came back running on 3 pots, I then took it down my self to find a valve stuck down, and the bucket jammed in its guide, its taken a chunk out so goosed,,I am not a mechanic, and now I am thinking the mechanic who did the job is not either , buts its done so I am seeking help for this problem,,, Thanks to all for any help

Have you tried Adrain Bailey? His contact details can be found in the 'where to get cf spares' section at http://cf-uk.co.uk/spares.htm He's expensive but he's either got or can get most CF parts.

Hi bluebedouin, First thank you for your fast reply and photos,I am sat here with mine sat on my lap,It does not seem the same, ie it has 5 small ball bearings same as your but mine has 2 larger ball bearing each side of the center channel, other wise it seems the same..I am thinking if I can clean it up ie, get the tappet bucket to run free up and down it sound work, as the bucket has 2 holes in it for the adjuster and a cut away on the casting were you adjust it, so will a little chip out be a problem ????? many thanks again,
