    I'm interested in buying that gm hotcam this guy has and he said one of the cam mains ( i guess that 's what they are called, it sits on the cam bearing) has a small nick in it, he took it to the machinist and the guy there smooth it out and made sure no bures were sticking out,
    this guy had it in his car and never had a problem with it, what do ya'll guys think?

    i'm probably going to buy it and i'm sure it's fine, i just wanted to get your opinions and see if any of you had problems with this before,


    later,

    If the machine shop said it is ok that I would think it is ok. On the other hand it is not worth ruining an expensive engine over so I don't know. LOL alot of help I am!
