Default Re: Used camshafts

Like others, I take Pete's advice as gospel on the cam subject.
He has ground cams for me and they have been excellent. I have never
used a used cam in any engine, only because I wanted something more than
stock re performance.
If I wanted to use a used cam, I think I would just send it to Pete, have him check
it out and do what he recommended. It is so expensive to build a good flathead
that to me, it's not worth taking a chance.
I have had an engine totally destroyed due to a set of bad lifters.
Just my opinion
Jim
