[QUOTE="Russell Kemp, post: 137988, member: 3369"] The Cam on the left could be a 105 (I have some 105 Cams in the workshop and will have a look when I get a chance). You could email the photo to Steve at M&S and ask the question? The Cam on the right looks like a MK1. I was told that a MK3 Cam was like a MK1 but with a slightly rounded back (know as a quietening ramp). Looking at your build photos I see that you have not put any goo over the heads of the crankcase studs in the primary side and note that you have not put a wine cork or a plug in the KS tunnel, both good advice given to me by my old man. As for using a Simmons nut (part no 98) on the Spindles this is a must use to get a good seal with the ET183, if using the right spec nut you will not have any problems with Spindles turning unless the Spindle fit is shot in the first place.
