Take a look at my cam bearing please. I finally got the heads and cam out of my car tonight. Looking at the front cam bearing, I found the following in the pics below. Also, when I feel around the bearing there is a rough spot at the 6 o'clock posistion. Is the bearing shot? Car has 71K miles on it. Thanks.

If it was smooth, I would say run it but since you have a rough spot it would be a good idea to have them changed. My engine only has 62K on it and my cam bearings looked a lot better than that. Looks like you get to pull the engine unless there is a LOT of room in front of it.
. The engine had good oil pressure before I tore it down. I just hope I didn't screw it up pulling the cam out.

Well, its pull it and rebuild it, or drive it, blow it up, and then rebuild it. I going to have a guy come over today and have a look at it and see what he thinks. In the end I think I will probably roll the dice.
