Default how much can I get?

I have a used cam from my 2001 camaro SS with about 46 thousand on the cam.

I swapped over to an FM13 and I was curious how much I could sell this cam for.

any opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Also have stock pushrods and stock springs.

the only thing you will get with a FM13 and stock springs is a big BOOM after you float all your valves into the pistons and they come apart........


you need to do a bit more reading........stock springs and pushrods are not really even acceptible for a stock cam.......


I'm guessing your question was "how much HP will I have?" You have not given ANY information about the car.......

I think he's asking how much $$ he can get for his stock cam/springs/pushrods. I going to say $150 for everything.

I think he's asking how much money he could sell the stock 2001 cam, springs and pushrods for...kinda confusing. Might be able to get $150 maybe $200 for everything from someone who is putting their car back to stock. Don't know if they'd even be worth that much though.

I've seen people sell their stock cam on here before, don't remember how much money they got for it though. Best thing to do is make a lamp with it like someone else mentioned.

Keep your cam, pushrods, and springs. You may have to reinstall them before selling car in future.

Just curious as to who would buy a stock cam? It offers no real performance gain, and you rarely see a cam go bad unless maybe a lifter desintegrated or something.

They were probaly putting it back to stock before they sold it. Just a guess. I still have mine. I do not think I am going to put mine back stock. I am taking my baby with me to the grave.

The guy wanted a stock cam from a 2000 SS so I sold it to him. Obviously he needed it for some reason.
