So, it ran much better with a good used cam, didn't it? How big of a difference would you say that you noticed?
I really cant say it made any difference. I was pretty new to MBs then, maybe I just didn't notice.

That 78 240D had more spunk than most 240s before and after the cam swap. I didn't see the badly grooved cam lob until I went in too adjust the valves.
