I need 8 (minimum) cam shaft washers and don't know of a source.
Can someone help? Part number 6769.
I've been searching E-Bay but not finding anything.
Camshaft Shims
Per Service Bulletin #M-860, the shims for the cams are no longer suggested for use by the MoCo. 18)
Camshaft shims (Part No. 6769 and 6770) used to control maximum cam gear shaft end play have been discontinued in production engines.
Engineering testing has determined that an increase in the maximum allowable cam gear shaft end play does not contribute to an increase in noise.
Nor does it prove to be detrimental to component operation.
When reassembling engines after service or repair, it is not necessary to reinstall camshaft shims.
Cam gear shaft end play should be measured following the procedure in the latest applicable Service Manual.
Observe the minimum end play specifications of .005“ for all cam gears, except rear intake which is .004” minimum end play.
It is not necessary to measure maximum cam gear shaft end play.
