WOT throttle body cam

[TAV]

Hi all

My throttle body cam is broken... so looking to see if there has been any aftermarket ones made that are metal? Or even just an OEM replacement?

Thanks

Thanks! I’ve seen this one. May be an option I go down re: drill and thread wire. Was hoping to get the metal fabricated piece, but not liking my chances of getting in contact with that guy.

Cheers

Thanks. I’ve tried to get in contact with him, but haven’t heard back. When did you order yours?

It’s been a couple years. The first package (a padded envelope as I recall)had a hole and was empty. I emailed him and he shipped another.

Give him a few days to respond, i got mine a while back, he makes these himself

Any luck reaching the guy who makes these? If not, any machine shop should be able to make one for you or you may want to try making one yourself out of aluminum. The trick of course is the hole with the flat. Easy to mold but hard to machine. I would consider drilling and reaming the hole to its full diameter and then drill and tap for a setscrew that will bear on the flat on the shaft it mates to.

Hi Torqhead.
No luck at all, but I actually went and did exactly what you suggested.

Here’s the end product....
