Crabman made some excellent points. Are there "straight" cams out there to be found? Again, do any of you true engine builders know what maximum journal run out is tolerable in order for it not to be an issue? An earlier response stated .0001-.0003". The cams I received are no where close to this. Do I need to keep returning cams until I get one in this range? My build has already been delayed 3 weeks due to the "bent" cams!
