Ok, I called Clearwater this morning. Their recommendation was to pull the cams, and run a minimum of 90psi into the cylinders to check for any leaky valves. That way they will know if they need to send me an intake cam, or send me a new head. I just bought my compression tester on Sunday, so I'll have to look at the adapters that came with it to see if I can run pressure into the cylinders, and check for leak down at the same time via the gauge. I need to let them know by tomorrow at the latest if they are going to get me a replacement cam or head by the weekend. So at the very least, it looks like there going to take care of it. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

When I called them about the passenger side cams that I swapped, they said there are no markings on the cams to identify which is which. You just have to go by the lobe position with the pin up. My thinking is I ran the passenger side head with the exhaust cam in the intake position, and I'm getting 180psi+ (on a cold engine) on each cylinder on that side, so I seem to have avoided any damage. I'm hoping the same is true with the driver side. I didn't do a leak down test on the passenger side though, so I may not have all of the facts on the condition of that side.
