I have one tappet that is badly pitted on the bottom. My machinist says that
probably means I will have to have some work done on the camshaft. He will
measure the cam this week and let me know.

I have heard several terms in connections with camshafts: resurface,
reprofile, and regrind. Are these all different words for the same process?

Could you recommend someone who knows Austin-Healeys? I can't find any names
in the archives.



TIA
