I may be wrong but I believe that after a motor is broke in, the cams, cap bearings ect become matched to there location. That's why a good repair manual will say to make sure that you re-place the cam bearings in the same place that they were removed from when reinstalling them. If you must change cams then a plastigauge and micrometer ( picked up cheaply at just about any auto store) will let you know if they're compatible, or if machining is requiredS.R.Czekus
