I am in the process of 'doing' the engine on my '78 Spitfire. I have found that the bore for the cam shaft is oversize by .002" or so. As there are no bearings to change, I have ordered a new cam with bearings (Mk3 type) hoping there will be enough press fit to look after the wear. If not I was thinking about boring the holes and putting a sleeve for the bearings to sit in. Has anyone run into this kind of thing. Hope my spelling is OK this time. |
