I was wondering if you could put a used camshaft in and be ok, or will the wear from a different car cause it not to work good in my car.

 

The components used w/ any cam can have an affect on how well the cam transitions to being reused: The most obvious signs are visible wear or discoloring.

I've sold my old cams w/out incident.

 

derek you are looking for a used cam? give me a call or email me, i might have something for ya i will hook a KS bro up! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

also to answer your question with roller (mostly) camshafts of today the lifters do not put much wear at all on the lobes. BUT i would always be nervious to buy someones used cam as you dont know what you are getting. it is STILL a risk in buying something as important as a camshaft that is a wearable item. i would not buy a higher milage cam, but that is just me personally.

you should be fine, people sell used cams all the time. I'm buying one from my buddy in a week or two. Nobody has ever said that you cant use used cams
