Default Re: Cam clean-up?

Interesting discussion, but I look at it like a bearing race, even cleaned up and polished, I wouldn’t use it.

Now I can see if your wallet is empty and you need to get an engine running to get to work, then sure. I realized these engines don’t run with high spring pressures, but 300 bucks added to the cost of a freshly rebuilt engine, isn’t that much for a piece of mind.

Hey, might last 75k miles, but say you put the 300 into a new cam or a regrind on it, average out what that 300 bucks per mile cost you. Not a lot.

Now if someone brought me a pile of engine parts and said “put it together, I’ll pay you xxx$$”. I’d not think twice, only give them options.
