Reply With QuoteNope. I'm bettin' no galling. Pretty sure the cam galling issue was all early 02 models.
Yes, I think they your gay20a3 cams are galled!
No, you're motor is a factory freak with no galled cam!
Here's the deal, my 2004 EP with 105~ original miles, K20A3 motor is going to get pulled out next week. Who wants to bet if the cams are galled, or not?
What do you think?
I fugged up the poll, im tired. whatever.
GO!

Yeah I'm sure they're fine friend
shh. LOL y u giving away all the secrets!
hahah yeah im nearly at 90k and checked when i did my valvecover and no galling whatsoever
but then again i have an 03
how about, if your cams are not galled, you can trade it for mine? lol...
T u wanna pick up my motor tho? letting it go cheap!
Why are you getting rid of it? You were working hard for it...
my k20a3? psh if you want it let me know
the k24a2, not for sale...
Oh...hahaha...I thought you mean the k24a2...lol...BTW...PM the price and condition of the k20a3...I think I may have a buddy who might want to pick it up locally.
I'm betting that it's like mine... bad timing threw off the valves and now you dropped one... GO!
nooo, engine still running/driving fine. i didnt say it was broke!
So I need to change my vote;
got the valve cover off right now to adjust the timing, sounded like #1 and #3 had gotten a little out of whack.
I've had the cover off for adjustments in the past, and galling was never an issue...until now. WTF?! Both #1 AND #3 have some serious galling going on the exhaust side!!!! Seriously, I'm at a loss! Between the last time I adjusted valve clearance and this time, nothing has changed with my regular maintenance. Same oil brand/weight, filters, etc. Until just recently, I'd not even heard signs that any valves were out of whack. (The noise started bein noticeable last week, though it may have been hiding under the normal sound of noisy ass fuel injectors for a little while before that).
But...yeah, serious, serious galling goin' on on my exhaust lobes, and it appears to have all happened in the last ~40,000-50,000 miles.
WTF?
i thought you basically said you haven't changed your oil in 50k. lol. maybe you got an early 03 model, with leftover 02 cams.
