Back when I had to have the block machined the first time yes they installed a new cam bearing yes just 1 did I change it again no it looked great the block where the cam rides no damage at all. The cam lobes didn't even have any wear marks

One thing I don’t understand is every time I buy bearings ( yes or bearings ) I’ve found I have to fix them, they always have the edges where they meet togeather rolled over and I have to take a file or some 2000 grit sandpaper to them I don’t understand why this is
Ok guys I need help so I have no oil pressure I just now got it all back togeather and my luck again it has no oil pressure WT HECK. It’s like the oil pump lost its prime and it won’t get it back so I used a drill powered oil pump and pumped 1 gallon through the oil pressure sending unit location and another gallon through the outside part of the oil filter which I believe leads to the oil pump and no results
Who'a pump are you using?
I'll be on a road trip today. Have some time to think about it. I'll call my secret weapon too.

It’s an oil pump out of an old air cooled VW bug. I just tapped and plugged the oil output just like if you were to full flow the oil system in a race car (2 oil lines going to oil filter then back into motor the correct way) then tapped the sucktion side and screwed in a barbed fitting and replaced the pump cover with one that had a hole threaded into it already. Here I installed a AN -8 fitting and attached a hose. To drive the oil pump I rounded of the shaft (that would normally go into the cam gear to spin the pump) and hammered an old 13mm socket onto it and I used my electric to drive it. It leaked a little where the drive comes out the back but not terrible. It worked so dang good a person could use it to transfer fluids from a drain pan to a oil tank or something like that
