    Dan- You pull the cams so you can check and clean the lifters, correct? Do you usually find much wrong on them with a 575?

    Correct. Mixed bag honestly. I see cars come in with 2k miles that need 10 rebuilt and cars with 20k miles that don't need any rebuilt.

    Dan- The ones scratched on the rear of the camshafts are usually more accurate, but you need a mirror to see them.

    How did you determine that the water pump needed to be rebuilt? Also, why not put a new one in?

    Not trying to second guess. A new water pump was installed (19,600 miles) when I bought my 550 and I have the old one. It seems fine, bearing is very tight and smooth.

    With the belt tension off you can rock the pulley and feel the free play in the shaft, they also make allot of noise when there running.

    It's cheaper and very easy to rebuild rather then replacing the whole pump.

    Dan- Sounds like a Friday cam degreeing session at the factory. Mine were really close, so it is just luck of the draw.

    yeah it's very rare to find but not worth the risk in trusting the marks.
