I also got GSC cams and they were making the cam gears wobble! I would take them back. Know I have HKS 272, make the right choice, take em back.

They look fine. The edge of the lobe doen't ever touch anything. Might as well complain about the parts that aren't lobes being rough too.

i think you'll be fine, they dont ride on the outside edges anyway. BUT, i would call them and explain it anyway.

I would call them up and voice your complaints about the milling, however the cams should be just fine. However, I would not recommend sanding down the edges or grinding them, unless you know exactly what you are doing.

It is just part of the casting, there is nothing wrong with them.

Nothing wrong with them. Those outsides of the lobes do not contact anything.

Put them in, they are fine.

Too all the expert newbie's telling him to send them back, bite your lip next time and wait for someone who knows to answer him correctly.
