Pull Torrington and replace with new one?
So I'm doing a cam swap lifters and the works got the cam out and there already is a Torrington in it. I have a new one should I r&r it or leave it and have a spare. Not sure on when it was installed but the bike only has 36k ish on it. I'm thinkin pull it but want some other opinions. Thanks in advance D

The problem with the INA bearing they used was the plastic cage and less rollers...the Torrington has no cage a full set of rollers all around...no way it will wear out in 36k...and it probably has less than that...I would run it.
If the one you have in there now goes out to lunch you'll need ALOT more than a spare cam bearing. The one in there now is good for a LONG time..

Yeah I know that if she goes south I got a hell of a lot more to worry about I'm just second guessing my self on pulling it I'm **** about stuff like that I'm sure it'll be just fine but I'm Just gonna do it and be done I've been playing with bikes since 7 this morning and just not thinking straight lol did three sets of rocker box gaskets then tore into my bike to get this done. Gotta love being the mechanic in your riding group
least I made some coin to offset my cam swap
