Default Piper 285T2 + Vernier Pulley

How much would a Piper 285t2 cam and adjustable vernier pulley go for nowadays?

I have had a set sat in dry storage for ages, just never got round to fitting them. Now I have a new head with another lot in/on, so these are surplus to requirements.

All looks in good nick to be fair...

lol, Im requesting a price, not you lot. It just happens that people may be interested in taking it from my hands for an offer, to which I have no idea what to offer it for, hence asking the question in the first place :P

It hasnt got Piper written on it nor any markings to indicate it is. However the Cam is Piper.

Looks just like my Piper vernier so I would say so.

Unfortunately with out the lifters that the Cam was running with and then each one being paired with it's lobe the Cam is scrap! If you fit it and a new set of lifters the work hardened Cam will rip the new soft lifters apart in no time, sending a bucket load of swarf round your engine Same will happen if you use your existing lifters as what wear there is will not match that on the Cam.
Cam and lifters MUST always be ran in together.

I'm sure if you stick it on the bay someone will buy it, but it's up to you mate..... it wont do their engine any good.

PMSL Thats a good idea!

Never heard of reprofiling before, but dont see how you could put the metal thats worn away back again

it could be done, but not worth the cost, reprofiling takes some of the meat off the metal on the opposing side of the cam to the lobes, thusly making the followers pump up more to take the slack, this allows the lobe to push the valves further.
