I have a 1989 300 TE that blew a head gasket, I figured what the heck I'll have the machine shop check it out to make sure everything is up to par and to do a valve job, guides, and seals. Well, I just got the call back from the shop and if turns out it needs a new cam and one lifter is bad.
I would like to know if it is worth it to buy a used camshaft and lifters
there is one on ebay

and a few others I have found while searching used cars parts sites.
Or do I need to suck it up and and buy new?
