Re: Fitting Cam Bearings to a 1500 spitfire engine

Ken et. al,
  Thanks so much for your insightful feedback.
  I spoke with the rebuilder yesterday (Monday).
  He now believes that the cam failed due to an abscence of lubricating 
grooves on it's journals. My original cam had said grooves to entrain the 
oil so that it could not be squeezed out. The rebuilder is modifying the 
newest replacement cam journals to mimic the original cam's grooves.
  Thank you all again for your torrent of support. I deeply appreciate 
it.

God Bless You All!
