[QUOTE="badcobra, post: 16281499, member: 20798"] I wish I would have done this. I did bullet cams late 2017 and never checked. When I pulled the engine out this year, I found two front exhaust cam journals wiped out. I sent the head and cam to BES for cam bearing repair. They polished the cam and ensured fitment in the head with the bearings, but never checked runout. My cylinder head guy put it in a fixture and found it out by .012". Fortunately we caught this before I put it back together. I had the cam straightened by a local guy who beat it back to within .002 and it spins nicely now. Definitely worth checking runout on those shiny new cams. Any machine shop should be able to do this easily. [/QUOTE]
