    I'm thinking about doing the same.
    Juat bought Schricks 280/272 cams and E90 320is followers. Total was about $2900. I have a ticking in my head from worn cam or follower.

      Impressive! Out of curiosity, what are the compression numbers?

        That's something i need to do. I would expect it's lost some compression over the years. Engine still runs smoothly but I'll have to see what the test says.

          Got my UOA back. Not too surprised but still annoyed that copper/brass is present. What else besides rod bearings has copper/brass in it? Main bearings perhaps (i thought these are usually not a problem with our engines)? valve guides? It's been consistently present in my UOA and I've already done rod bearings. I'm thinking the camshafts and followers are adding to the iron.
