I have no idea what they would be worth ......

There should be a few people on here, who have had fecked engines, that should also have spare OEM cams.

I had a couple of scores in my cams about the thickness of your thumbnail, nothing like in the pictures, might have the cam cover off again and have another look one day just t make sure all is ok'ish.

Buggered if I can really remember, all I remember was seeing a few thin scores when adjusting the valves.

Those cams are really shot to f uck.

I'd wonder about oil overheating/starvation.

Mine had a factory shine at 35,000. Except no. 3 exhaust, one was slightly blued, poss. oil starvation when the filter started leaking.

Would'nt go for some cams that have come out of a "broken" bottom end engine you dont know what they may have "picked up" or stresses incurred, do you want to take the chance?
