    Stock cams in and lubed


    Camshaft seal - moly grease on the inner surface plus sealant in the corners

    It helps the oil pump suck the oil up from the sump on first start up so oil pressure builds quickly...

    Because everybody knows that 'more is better' always, either that or because they are clueless! Sure the pump needs something so it's not bone dry & can use a light smear of grease on its gears, lobes & running surfaces, but packing it, ports & all, is useless overkill.
    I can only hope that excess doesn't cause the filter bypass to open.
    'I've scrapped better.' John stated when asked about the car by the guy with the silver tipped cowboy boots!
