Cam bearings: coated or not?
Anyone use coated cam bearings? I don't remember where I read it, probably here, but if your gonna put a pretty aggresive cam in with decent spring pressure it was a good idea to have coated cam bearings. Was looking at these:

no it was a polite way of telling the OP to think about his question before he asks it. coated bearings dont do **** unless you plan on running your motor with 0 oil pressure. if the 3200+ pounds of force exerted 10 times per second per piston/rod assembly isn't hurting stock bearings in 200k mile lt1s... how is a little valve spring going to hurt cam bearings?
