Then when I had an oiling problem, the bearing debris thrashed the journal surfaces. So they sent them out for repair.

Regarding the spin resistance, I suspect it's more due to the housings and not the cam itself. The housings apparently tend to twist and that affects the bore alignment.

Webcam is GREAT to work with. They turn things around in the time promised and their time is not lengthy at all.
Yep, cams look great. Whatever black coating they coat them with is very fragile... seems to almost flake off with minimal contact...

Not sure what they did to the cams, but they both spin great now, with the same minimum resistance...

Its very satisfying to FINALLY get to this point in this eternal project...
