I have been talking to Egge about making a batch of cam rollers and pins. They used to make them but they are now out of stock.
I am wondering how may of you would be interested in buys them if I can get them to make them?

I've just re-assembled my engine with the old, slightly pitted ones but would order a set as spares if the price is reasonable. Bill W.

I have spoken to Egge again they are saying that if we get around 10 sets ordered they would remake them. The approximate price would be around $20 per roller and pin so around $320 a set plus postage and packing.
Please let me know if you are interested.
Best,
Mick

So the guy I was dealing with, has retired and nobody else seems to know about the order. Also there is a question as to whether they need more than 10 set ordered to be able to go ahead making them. As I find out more info I will pass it on.
They last made them in 2003 and they do not have any left in stock.
I am getting my engine ready to go to the machine shop and really could have done with these being made by now.

So Egge has come back and says that I need 16 sets ordered (256 pins and 256 rollers) before they will make them. They will cost $20.63 per a set of one pin and one roller. So enough to do one engine rebuild will be $330.08 (16 sets)
So far I have had interesting in ordering 12 sets from people in the club.
These will fit all the Model L years.

Member Dick Powers contacted me with new information about the pin and roller sets made by Egge. In the 1998 Egge catalog the roller sets have a stock number of VC109 which fits all the Model L through to 1933 KB. So they fit all the engines that are fork and blade construction.
I am still looking for more members to join this order. So far I have orders for 13 sets but need 16 for the minimum order at Egge. Anybody else thinking of doing engine work in the near future?
