Well I was installing a new cam and found a few things that bothered me so I tore a bit further down and....
Does this cam bearing wear look normal? I can feel the groove with my finger. Additionally all the rod bearings look like crap. Can anyone give me an idea of what would make the rod bearings look like this.
The edges of all the rod bearings also look like this at the break where the cap connects to the rod.
My original plan was to throw the cam in and have the heads redone. Now it looks like I need one cam bearing maybe, and new rod bearings. Another thing I couldn't capture in the pics is one of the rod journals has a scratch on the edge of the journal.
What would you guys do. Opinions?
