EDIT: added some pics on post #7 & #8
I'm LS dumb, so what's everyone's opinions on the cam bearing wear on my 6.0 LQ9, oops, LQ4 and added pic of one bank of the pistons. The other bank looks the same. I was going to do a cam swap, but now I'm a running a bit on the side of probably not smart, since to me the bearings look like they're worn pretty good and what do the main and rod bearings look like if these two cam bearings look like this? Do I just shove a new cam, timing chain, oil pump in this thing or do I try and replace the cam bearings with the pistons still in it or do I tear this thing all the way down and freshen it up? The lifters took some twisting and pulling up and pushing down before I could get them out too and I'm not sure if that's normal or not. So fire away with your thoughts.
