It took a while to wedge my exhaust cam out? The intake cam came right out. This worries me a bit, there is a little more scoring from the #4 piston on that cam.. Should I be worried about this?
A little inside story; I spun a bearing that locked up the engine on #4. The head appears to be fine, the timing was still dead on, the motor just locked up.
When I put the gears back on, if the cams spin freely I should be coo right?
