I have herd this from a few people. Can you tell a little more about the engine and what happened at the time it failed. How you determined this and how long it took to grind down to nothing after it failed. I think there are others that might read this and this could be really helpful. Did they warrant the cam. It reads like they do on there documentation, Not that they are that expensive when it comes to the rest of the engine.
