Holy shit that's a lot of scoring. My cams didn't have nearly that much.. :S

And yes, don't sand them, clearance will potentially be both off and uneven == NOT good.

The two mechanics I'm sitting in the room with lol'd at those pictures.

you now if JB does moly or teflon coating? i talked to IJ on supramania and he said they are fixable, and the coating can help bring the clearances back into spec.

Anybody have a r154 clutch release fork I can buy off of them?

Also, the scoring isn't that bad. The supra's have a really soft metal coating on the cams..that's very similar to how mine and Alex's looked. I used some scotch bright pads on both. Don't know if that was good or bad for them though!

I think that's a solid idea. I'll just change the oil/filter again this weekend.
