Comp Cams Still For Sale

Question I got from a few people:

Can you install these cams yourself without the Ecotec Camshaft Sprocket Holding Tool?

Yes you can if you have the experience and confidence to take your Cylinder Head off.

Here's a link to a "How To" made by Darkstars

Great job he did to him

This wouldn't fit a 08 because of the cam sensor right?

pacific cobalt

Right
You would have to get a machine shop to swap the cam sensor onto the Stg.1 comp cams. It's been done by a couple of members here.

I'm ganna call a few machine shops right now, I'll get back to u in about 15-45 minutes.

do you or anyone else know a shop that has done this? How I the sensor mounted on?

pacific cobalt

Bates Engineering would be my #1 choice

Got to go to work now but I'll check in later this evening.
If you have any more question I'll gladly help

according to Bates Engineering the 2.2 ecotech does not have a cam sensor unless it is European. Wouldn't the sensor be on the driver's side of the head? I took a look at mine and i didn't see any sensor or wires on the head or valve cover.

pacific cobalt

Someone at bates told you that?

Let me look into this it just does not sound right.

07 is confirmed by at least 2 members here to have the cam sensor.

UPDATE

I've been told that there is a sensor and it has to be pressed in the exact location. Also 1 of the 2 cams is too long and needs to be cut.

Does one of the cams extend out of the head on your 08 ecotec? The sensor should be located at the end of it

vash90909

but don't ecotecs have a intergal compression-sensing ignition modular? I don't have the end of the cam sticking out, not thaT I see. I have two brakets. No sensors no wires. Bates said all 2.2 ecotecs are unequal length cams and that is was comp sells.

I'm trying to find a cylinder head diagram for an 08 ecotec 2.2
I just don't want to sell you these and then you find out they don't fit and need to be modified. I'm a good seller I'd prefer the buyer be 100% satisfied with the purchase

vash90909

a man from comp just told me only the 05 cobalt works with their cams. He said here is a cam sensor on 08 and the cam has something to do with a high pressure injector??? He was a complete a$$ to me and said listen I'll send you these cams and if when they don't work send th back and only pay shipping.

pacific cobalt

First of all he's wrong it's 05 and 06 (I have an 06) but he's right about the sensor on 08 models.

How much did he want for the cams? $450 - $470
Shipping these heavy 2 cams costs about $45 just to let you know.

For less $$$ then that you can buy my cams and pay a machine shop to modify them for your sensor. Just make sure it's a reputable shop.
This is not a job for a rookie machinist

vash90909

is there a way you can find a picture of this sensor? I really did not see anything

I've been following your conversation because im selling a set of these myself...what pacific cobalt is telling you is true.

The 2005 and 2006 2.2L uses a waste spark control system, so there is no cam position sensor. Intake and exhaust cams are interchangeable with GMPP and Comp Cams camshafts.

2007+ 2.2L uses a wheel-style cam position sensor on the intake cam. It is not interchangeable with any GMPP or aftermarket cams. The exhaust cam for the 07+ is the same casting as previous years with a slightly different cam profile...it is interchangeable with GMPP exhaust cam.

If you have an 08, the sensor is there...period.

Thanks for clarifying that
