Default What is up with parts for my STS?????

[:@][:@]I have a 95 sts with the 4.6 northstarand abroken cam on the left intake. I have called all over the USA and no cams are available anywhere in fact the dealershipsI have talked to, say they also have other people in need of the overhead camshafts and we allhave to wait until they(the manufacturer of the cams desides to cast some more) Just who would be that company that casts the cams?

It's been about six weeks with no transportation for me!!!

Why would it ever get to this point!!!! No cams anywhere? this is indeed a royal pain in my *** Waiting for a casting of parts! This is totally wrong I love mycaddy and the one thingI thought cadillac could do is please its faithfull buyers of fine luxury autos.

Someone has sure let me down! I wishI could call this person and give him or her a good *** chewing!!!!

Does anyone anywhere have or nohow to get a cam preferablely new but I'd take aused one in good shape.

Cadillac may not be the nextcar I will buy if this is'nt resolved very soon and to thinkI was wanting a 98 Eldorado with the "full Monte" to sit my fat *** in and make everyone of my friends wish they had one.

Just whenI got caddy in my blood this Makes me and all the bragging about how good my cadillac is look like a 57 volvo!!!! You boys at cadillac sure need to step up to the plate and play ball or get out of the game!!!

YesI'm pissedand ready to tell everyone who will listen how you can't depend on parts from and forCADILLAC!!!

Let's see some action GM big wheels!!!

Anyone who could help me it would be greatly apperciated.

Being I am in the same boat, however the 550+ list price is not in the budget I planned for my 94 ETC. It seems a good used one should be availible Part# I ran fits 93-99. STS,SLS,Concours are likely in a local salvage yard. I will check into new cam and post tommorrow.
