just wondering

[Opie]

is this bad?????

Not a good thing, but normal. I have yet to see stock cam bearings that dont have knicks in them when someone replaces a camshaft.

I think one of the guys on here had some that were worse than that and reused them with no issues.

i had the same thing when i tore mine down.

Think mine were just as bad, hooked it up with some new ones just to be safe :D

Bad but normal, unfortunately. If you can replace them it would be good, but you should be able to get a good bit of miles out of them like that.

When we wen't to put a cam in the Jeep they were a bit worse than this. We tore it down, the mains were in bad shape too. It got rebuilt.

This is why I'm not changing the heads/cam on this long block, I don't want to disturb it, cause I'm sure it has bearing issues.
