ahlem is on a distinguished road
E is intake as identified on the casting at the back end of the cam.
A7 is similar to E7 now that I took the exhaust side (A) off.
I would expect the cam regrind would leave quite a bit of clearance based on the fingernail in the scored groove test. Is it possible to add bearing halves once the head was machined or should I go to the yard and pull a head from a 330i of similar year?
I'll be checking this head for flatness after a good cleaning.
Any additional thoughts on using a cam and caps from a different head if the cap to head alignment and dimensions look good?
