I have a set of Shrick 280/272 cams (manufactured late 2022, new polished lobes that force you to get rockers instead of the black nitride lobes of old) that are slightly damaged after install. I've documented this well in my build thread and as well on the Cam thread here on the forum (link to follow). While they are damaged, it is also minimal. Is there a point to put them up in the For Sale section for a heavily reduced price for someone to take on as a project or is this a lost cause? I'd be selling them for less than half what they were new in 2022 when I got them from Bimmerworld ($750 obo) and they'd come with the relief valve as well.
If it's worth it please let me know.

I have CMP subframe raising bushings and am replacing my diff and wondering if I must lower the S.F to get the diff out? My first guess would be yes..

Originally posted by PSUEng View PostI replaced my original alternator 2yrs ago with a brand new Valeo unit; runs great so far. To "protect" against NLA parts and rising prices, is it more prudent to order a complete Valeo alternator and put on the shelf, or just get the voltage regulator kit as a spare? Of course, $100 for a VR vs. $270 or so for a complete unit.Mine (a Valeo) developed an open circuit in one of the windings so those spares wouldn't be any use. Sure it's a less likely failure but still you're trying to predict the future really.

A very long time ago my old Jeep sunroof drains clogged up, the only thing that worked well was compressed air. You just want to make sure you have some way of stepping down the air pressure.
You could use a shopvac that blows air and neck it down with tubing to the point you could insert it into the drains. I think I pulled the hard plastic tube off one of those cheapo fluid transfer pumps to get a small enough size to work with.
