Default Used Cam

Ok to use a used Cam? Found one with 15k on it.
Or better to just get new?

Hyd cams don't wear like the Solid Rollers do. Get the used cam and save yourself some cash. I bought my T1 used and it looked brand new with over 8000 miles on it.

Ed, if you're referring to Shant's TR224 cam, i'd go for it. As far as buying a used cam depending on the price I would do it, miles on a cam isn't as big of a deal as other part IMO.

Roller camshafts are VERY HARD billet steel and generally do not wear out.
