HELP! My nephew needs a B230F cam/pulley for his '86 740GLE 200

I wouldnt have posted this here except that I've heard a few of you bragging about those VX and K cam finds. Those aren't what I'm after, but a suitable take-off cam and pulley would be awesome. I'm eating the bill for the mechanic since he's just a young guy with a warehouse job and his first brick didn't even land him home. I had it towed over here for diagnosis and it first looked like a jumped timing belt. You can see the thread on the 700 board for more details.

Thanks to all!

    HELP! My nephew needs a B230F cam/pulley for his '86 740GLE 200

    Where are you located? If you gave us that info it might help....ie Canada vs. US makes a big difference in shipping rates and time it takes. I don't know where Pico Riverra is....I guess I could look up the zip but I'm lazy. Anyways, I think you should just say: "I want an M cam with a gear for as cheap as possible and as fast as possible shipped to *___* " My problems are:
    1) I'm in Canada
    2) I use my M cam to pass emissions tests and
    3) I have no gear.

    If you go to a junkyard, you can easily take this out in probably 15 minutes. You can just break off the plastic cover to the timing belt and cut the belt, then undo the valve cover and cam bolts and you're set to go. Just a thought. Sorry I can't help you more....I'm sure someone can get you one. Have you checked the IPD classified's? http://www.ipdusa.com/ClassifiedAdDetailsList.aspx?CategoryID=14

    the second ad down is an M cam for $20. That's not bad. Anyways, good luck,

    Maybe i failed to mention that I am willing to pay something for said cam/pulley, and that I need it fairly soon.
