What is the experience of  other VVers with crankcase wear at the cam bearing 
area?  


Way back in the 1970s when I was rebuilding so many Corvair engines, I was  
finding that nearly every crankcase had the cam bearings worn to the  max limit 
of the spec. I never had to actually reject a case, but even then the  wear 
was at the max limits. So by now I would expect to find most cases out of  spec.
