    You cant swap a cam cap from another engine, they are line bored and specific to each engine, you would have to be very careful making sure alignment and clearances are measured properly if using a random one.

    I know cheers, It doesnt matter with what im doing, it's getting cut down for clearance and won't have a camshaft going through it, will just have a core plug in there its just mine is missing don't know where it is, think it might've got slung

    Ah, youre cutting the cam for fitting in an escort? remember the little oil hole when you machine off the dizzy drive housing.
