K series rotor arm spigot - removeable or not?
FFTS - 18/10/10 at 10:23 AM

Just got some sexy new fast road cams for Sylvia They are the standard dizzy type with rotor arm on inlet cam end. However I can't fit them yet as I can't figure out if the spigot in the end of the cam is removable or not. There are no screws pins etc and look like it a compression fit but none tapered from pictures I found. Its a tiny little part but new is another £40 so want to check if it can be removed and reinstalled on the new cam and if so how.

British triden!! Where are yooouuuuuuuuuuu

They are a metalastic type bush IIRC that's unlikely to come out in one piece and be reusable. Had a Rover years ago that the rotor mount failed on , not too difficult to remove but needed to be timed so that the rotor was pointing at the correct HT lead when fitted and you only get one chance
