That would be ideal of course, but it's not like I'm the only person to do a cam swap, there is something else going on, it's just a matter of finding it. The other big factor is I start school on the 21st and it's a thousand mile drive back. I don't really have time for the machine shop on this schedule. I'm kicking around the idea of hand polishing the journals and putting new bearings in. I can't see any reason why a lightly grooved crank would pose a problem as long as there are not any bits sticking out and the clearances are good.
