CAM FIT INSURANCE
We often just get the job of installing cam bearings, but we’re not assembling the engine. We keep a supply of old camshafts around to use for a test fit. This is good insurance against our customer having a problem when it comes time to assemble the engine. Customers don’t understand that bearings are bored in the block from the factory and core shift or tight cam bores can effect the fit of the camshaft in the new bearings. If we don’t check, the odds are the customer won’t either.
