About to replace my cam bearings on a 1pc seal 880 block. It's a 2200.00 dollar block that was new and CNCd for up to a 3.80 stroke. The cam bearings are clocked all over the place. Your absolutely correct about the oil wedge and valve train pressure. My #1 front bearing has one hole at 6 o'clock lined up with the main bearing oil feed hole and the second hole is at 2 o'clock. The whole bottom ⅓ of it anyways has excessive wear. #2 @ 4:30, #3 @ 2:30, #4 @ 6 o'clock and not sure about #5 at the moment but suspect it could also be at 6 o'clock. Anyways I've installed them in the past based off your video and will be again next weekend. Thanks. Also the engine I'm discussing has around 15k miles on it. All roller from cam to rockers

I gotta say - in my 40 years of playing with cars and swapping engines, that almost sounds ludicrous. My buds and I have taking apart chevys small blocks - swapped - interchanged parts - as well as restarted parked cars. And we still got the engines to run. naturally if an engine is blow, then it's blown. I'm not saying that tech school might not have a point - but 100 years from now? 200 years from now with the erosion? In other words -go ahead and build an engine

This is the right way not lining the oil hole to the main bearing oil hole where the cam is pushing down against it. This way it creates an oil wedge causing the cam rotation to carry the oil to the high pressure spot at the bottom.It works the same as con rod bearing oiling

How far in do you do #5 bearing ?

It's further back compared to 1-4, a good way to check is to see if the hole is lined up with the oil well by poking thru the hole to feel if you go into the well
Do I know you at Indy!
This is not the right way I’ve put 3 sets in this way and haven’t got over 20 lbs of oil pressure
I made the diagram at work on my computer. Here is a link to the durabond bearing website that shows what they recommend. www.dura-bondbearing.com/Portals/3/pdf/Cam%20bearing%20oil%20holeTechnical%20Bulletin.pdf
