I understood they weren't yours, I thought you were concerned it was going to happen to yours. How about your seats, were they ok?

As far as cams go, of course I'm in the spot, I do know that everyone said with more duration there would be no issues, so as far as I am concerned new cams will have around 10 more degrees duration with same lift, therefor I can care less what happened with old cams as we all know what we think it was, I do not agree my cams were ok given what I looked at, but if I get new cams covered then I'm good.

Beyond normal maint I leave heads to the experts.

For myself at the time I was told "Chromoly made for me and marine use" sold to me as "ready to go and bolt on" trust me looking nback after finding out that was not true I got screwed.
