A wooddruff key for cam. Have a link to purchase but it's a pack of like 12. Was wondering if anyone just had one laying around.

I'll be doing the brakes on my early 85 soon, what do you guys recommend?

Was told it's different. The cam shaft one is a longer rectangular piece.

See Pelican Parts for woodruff key or Auto Atlanta. I got mine at the Porsche Dealer in Atlanta, Ellison Porsche I think. Additionally, I bought my brake parts, i.e., rotors, pads, fluid (super Blue), power bleeder, etc from Vertex Auto in Miami. Very good folks to deal with and good prices.

NAPA or most autoparts stores will have a drawer or two full of keys.

If someone can get me some dimensions/measurements I can get one for you. If you can't find one at sears/ace let me know, I work at a local Caterpillar dealer and we've got a draw-ful worth of woodruff keys. PM me if interested.

Still have not had any luck finding one to fit. Can not just get one and shave down.

Also is there any interest from any of you in buying my NA? Thinking of selling in order to have some more money for a down payment on a house.
