Message	that the honing marks were STILL on the cams (honing marks are the marks made during machining of the cams). he showed everyone at JWT the cams and they were all very impressed... they've never seen such a clean engine with 80k miles on it... the cams looked BRAND NEW! the fact that my 80k engine impressed Jim Wolf and Mike Smith, who have torn down countless Z engines, is enough for me to keep changing my oil every 2k miles. yeah, it may be overkill... but i plan on keeping my Z for the rest of my life.
