Got the CAM out tonight. Gear looks to be metal, bronzish look, but doesn't look like composite. I think the lobes are fine to me. One journal(?) where a bearing is has a circular line, another some corrosion, but neither look like showstoppers. The lifters seem okay too. From the looks of this, the crank looks to be low-risk to use in the build for my 230->250 conversion.
I'm not versed, actually the first camshaft removal by myself, if anybody sees anything, please do not hesitate to speak up.
Lifters
Note the dark spot from previous corrosion on the journal.
There's a line on the journal. When I think back to my youth and what the CAM for my old '52 International looked like, this is nothing.
