Re: Groove in rear cam bearing on 66-67 396 engines

It does need the groove in it for the early model engines.I went through this and my machinist had told me he did it.I thought I was going to have to pull the engine and take it back but he told me I was covered.If the groove is not installed it will gauld so I am told from lack of oil on that cam bearing!If you did not put the groove in it you need to pull it out and do it or it will cost you in the long run!
