GB: CatCams and Valve Springs

[Low Level E30]

Is this still an open GB?

Is the $130 for M20 valve springs pricing still available?

[modifiede30]

Yes and yes. Both components are being ordered direct from CatCam so the parts can take between 4-6 weeks. At this time, we're waiting on a new shipment of both cams and springs.

The GB will officially end on the 15th of June.

Pricing and availability for m30b35 284 or 304 with springs?

[modifiede30]

Here is what can be obtained for the M30.

1300724 - 284 / 284°
1300725 - 299 / 299°
1300726 - 305 / 305°
1300727 - 314 / 314°
1300728 - 314 / 314°
1300729 - 318 / 318°
1300730 - 326 / 326°

All of these would be priced at $210. Springs are $130. There appears to be a difference between "pre-motronic", Motronics1 and Montronics2 so you'll need to know this before ordering. I would encourage you to check the catcam site for the full specs of these given the lift (some are as high as 15mm).

How about for 308/309 cams?

How about for 308/309 cams?

The sku they show on their site is not available through my distributor.

[EDIT] We spoke and my original response was related to the M30 engine I listed in the prior thread response. I'll get your answer as discussed.

Update:

My distributor contacted me today and informed me that the majority of cams are expected to arrive with a few days. Since I'm unsure how long customs will hold them, I can't give a final date when to expect them to ship to everyone, but I will post again once I know.

[ColdAccord]

hey, I sent you a pm let me know. thanks

[modifiede30]

The cams are arriving today at the North American distributor, after which they'll be shipped to the US distributer for final distribution to all customers. I anticipate they'll likely start to ship to everyone at the end of this week or early next week.

Any chance of still getting in on this buy? I'm new to the E 30 scene and didn't know about it.
I have the M20 motor and would want a cam and springs...

I Hope so...
Thanks, Steve

Just updating everyone. The cams are sitting in customs at this point. Not sure what the hang up is at this point. As mentioned before, I'll begin to send along tracking info once I've received the info from the distributor.

Any word on these yet? Still stuck in customs?

[modifiede30]

UPDATE

I spoke with the vendor today and the shipment that had arrived into customs was they're MB order, not their BMW order. The orders had been placed within 1.5 weeks of each other so he is expecting our stock to arrive any day. Unfortunately, this means it will be at least another 1.5 weeks before things go out to everyone. Sorry for the miscommunication. As a mentioned before, I'd prefer to wait until things are confirmed, and I wish I had waited in this case. I will post more definite info once I know that they are at the warehouse and are labeled for delivery.

Thanks for the update. I actually feel a little better knowing they're not getting kicked around by the goons in customs. My car is down right now, so I'm trying very hard to be patient! It'll be worth it!!
