I heard back from Comp cams. They couldn't make heads or tails of whether or not the camshaft is okay or not. They suggested that I send it back to them for inspection.

However, they are working a reduced schedule between Christmas and New year's which is understandable. But that means I wouldn't get the camshaft back for at least two weeks if this cam indeed checks out okay. If it's deemed faulty them I'm looking at three weeks for new cam to be ground and Nitrided.

There completely blows my plans for getting the engine back together and in the car during my vacation time over the break.

I would only assume that Comp would simply grind me a new cam simply to keep the customer happy and not have another bad product out in the field.

Comp did state " I'm not sure how it made it past quality control". I replied back with yeah, me either... Thanks Comp!

I gut feeling says the cam is okay, my eyes tell me otherwise...
