    Camshaft help

    I finally stripped my motor "1960 Series 2 Petrol" and pulled out the camshaft and noticed that the last lobe, nearest the camshaft rear cover us badly pitted, I am assuming I cannot use it like this, or can I, what is my best course of action ?ImageUploadedByTapatalk1456555976.254188.jpg

    you could use that, but I wouldnt.

    there are metal filling options you could use and then have it reground but in reality without repair its only going to make itself worse and take out other parts with its shrapnel

    I thought so .. If I get a good second hand one, or a new one will I have to redo the camshaft bearings ?
