Hi all, tomorrow I will be replacing the cam gear cover on my 'new' B20 with one machined for a neoprene seal. While I am doing this is there any checks (visual or mechanical) I can do to make sure the cam gears are OK? I seem to recall a thread that talked about a brass shim or washer that was responsible for camshaft end play, (thrust) and wonder what this end play should be. Any other checks that you would do before instalation? The engine in question reportedly, and looks like it, has had a pretty complete rebuild in the fairly recent past.

TIA & Cheers!
OK
