Guys,
Anyone an engine guru?
I popped open my IO540 C4B5 and found I bought a pretty good motor, but have a small amount of pitting on the cam lobes. I plan to replace the cam shaft and doing the research to buy a new one found two options. New for ~$1000 or Serviceable and tagged ~$600.
I would ask the mechanic who is helping me disassemble but he has the FAA in his shop this week for an ag service inspection and I don't want to bug him anymore.
I am at that the point in the build were everything seems to hit me for more then I expected panel, engine, seats, interior and would love to save $400 but also don't want to "regret it" later.
Thanks
