I am are getting the motor pieces together o start reassembly, looks like a PO had it open at some point. the bearing shells on one connecting rod were flat, the other had a groove.
Question 1; the attached pictures show the cam. it shows wear. when measured, the lift is still between 0.317 -0.320. can it be put back in or is it on its way out? I am assuming this is still a norton chilled iron cam.
question 2; i can get the shop to do a rockwell hardness test, but how to do it on the nose of the cam and not cause damage?
wise words needed
