[Healeys] Camgear identification

[David Nock]

At one time many years ago I seem to remember a gear available that was made for the 4 and 6 cylinder Healey Motors. They had two timing marks on them.

Sent this before. Perhaps the attachments were too big. Smaller now, though hopefully adequate…..

 

I’ve a question for the engine experts. Attached are 3 pics.

“Camgear 1” & “Camgear 2” show the camgear that I removed from my MkII BT7 last night. A friend who was helping me setup a Vernier pointed out that it did not look original. He said it was a “lightened steel” wheel. Note the “4” & “6” stampings, also the 6 holes and the general appearance of being better quality than you’d expect.

“Original Type AH”, lifted off a supplier’s website, shows what I think is the original type for my car.

So, does anyone recognize mine? 

I don’t think it’s an original that’s been modified but I can’t be sure.

I spoke to Denis Welch…not one of theirs. I couldn’t find it at AHSpares or SC Parts.

It’s a decent looking thing & in good order. Pity to chuck it into the attic, never to be seen again. It’s been in the car during my tenure, say 25 years. Don’t know about previous to that.

Simon
