1 or 2 of every 10 cams I run across is not as straight as I want it to be, and I wind up pounding it straight.

Low oil pressure is a terrible indicator.


Wow! Glad I bought a GM cam, though maybe that doesn't matter. I would think the workman would notice a bent cam during installation.


So a cam that is bent enough to chew up the distributor gear could possibly be installed without enough difficulty to indicate something is out of whack, interesting.


Yup.
Learned my lesson when TPIS sold me one that cost me a motor.
Once we discovered it was bent, their reply was that the assembler is responsible to check it.
Now I do, every time.
