I got a 350 block hot tanked and the person who hot tanked it left the cam bearings in the block, I found this out months afterward so what can I do now?

 

You should remove the cam bearings, check all of the oil passages to make sure they are free and clear, and then put new cam bearings in it. If the motor is running and in the car and you not having any problems I might just leave it. But then you will always be wondering about if it is ok.

 

your cam bearings will be toast, ive done this before, its no big deal as long as you replace them.

 

it doesn't hurt the block if the cam bearings were hot tanked along with the block?

 

The solvent in the tank will distroy the bearings or anything aluminum not to mention is ruins the solvent. If the motor is running and the bearings were never replaced then someone is lying to you.

 

The motor hasn't been rebuilt yet. I was just wondering if the block would be fine after I removed the bearings that were hot tanked with it. Seems like it'll be fine once I replace it. Thanks.
