Re: NOS 8RT camshaft
Micheal at 3rd Gen will give me a full refund even if I peel off the cosmoline and test it. I have my recently machined block with new cam bearings on a stand so that test would be somewhat easy. So, maybe I make up one valve/guide assembly with a light spring and set at a certain lash and move it around to all 16 places? And what is that lash? and the lift numbers I gave were with I think what is called 'gross lift'. Or maybe I set up my dial indicator to read the cam lobes in the block?
