Re: Boring CAM journals.. Is it worth it?

Nobody else wants to play?The camshaft is 1st thing that I stick in a build....it needs to turn like butter, with a little 10/30 on the journals. If it does that, I dont see an issue. Then you lay the crankshaft....make sure that it turns like butter.Watch the pistons going in(smoove), no fight....twist that shortblock over....no fight, she rolls smooth. Check valve to piston clearance. Bbreak that bioch in......then run it like you stole it! longhorn
