Just curious what I ask the machine shop to do with my cam, the dowel pin is broken and a little bit of a depth inside the camshaft, what do I tell them needs done?

 

First and foremost, make sure your machine shop works on engines, lots of engines.

They will know what to do. Most likely, they will just drill it out. Provide them with a new pin with the correct length.JMHO

 

the dowl pin can be tap'd out very carefully with a punch from the back side....

 

looks like it was welded in there though that's why I ask also it is recessed in there lke someone tried to dig it out Can I get another retarded answer?

 

now as far as the new pin that I have?? Do I tell them to just stab it in?

 

true, but what i meant was do I have them install the pin and weld it in place?? or leave it just put in? I never had to fix a broken cam so my questions are straight to the point.

 

I would just have them remove it. The pins are just pounded im. It doesn't take much to get them stuck in and a beech to get out. There is no need to have it welded!

Be certain to reference the correct dowel height from the face of the cam. I think it is like a max of .620" and a max dowel OD of .250". Vary from this and you might crap out the bearing in your opti.
