Cam Bearings
I am in the middle of doing heads and cam in my car and last night we took the crank off and the cam out and the front two bearings got scratched a little bit. Should I change em out or will they be fine?

Yea I got that but I didnt know how many people were going to look in that thread so I decided to put up another one. You can feel it with your finger but its almost like more of a scuff then a scratch and you cant really see you have to feel it

On a slace of 1-10, I would rate the job a 1.
If you want to invest, get yourself a cam bearing tool.
You can find a pretty decent write-up HERE.
All-in-all, it's just as easy as popping the old one out, and pressing the new one in.
Enjoy.
