Stag Cams

[thomas.jell@domain.elided]

Dear fellow staggers

I'm progress to bring back pieces of my engine.

I just fitted cams to my rebuilt heads and I'm getting all tappet clearances to order the right shims.

My question to those of you already did it:

 - what to use. If I messure clearance should I go for strong or easy fitting ?
 - is some running in to be expected soon ?
 - how hard is the camshaft to turn (heads only, so no compression)
   I need a wrench to move it at all.
 - any other thing to be aware of ?

Thanks

  Tom
