the majority of us know that the F13's during this time are bad, but im starting to think that its not limited to just the F13 and that other cams that cam motion have ground have been bad during this time...i only have afew days before i leave, but when i get back ill have to pull the cam to see what i got...maybe ill pull it the day before i leave to see and if its bad just send it back that day....so when i get back ill have a new cam already sitting here ready for install...anyhow, thanks for the responces so far...

SSheets, even though this post is mainly asking about f14s the generally topic is still focused towards bad cams right??? SUX2BU's response to my question was helpful and got me Im not knockin you or anything, just my point of view for what its worth.
Yeah i installed an F14 on a friends car and it had the fine tooling marks too. i'm hopin its not messin up his car. i might pull it for free just to make sure.

F14 was installed in my Z06 back in December. It is still doing fine as Allan checked it out when I had my heads installed.

During what time frame were the cams bad. Is there a way of telling if you are buying a cam from someone, if it was from the bad batch?
