thanks Alistair.

I was going on what I was told by a Vanagon mechanic. Either I
misunderstood him or he was "selling" his services. I think it was the
latter. If I understood him correctly, he mentioned this cam as an
option on a rebuild.

It sounded a little bogus at the time but I know less than he does so....

Neil.
