Chevrolet since about 1955 thru 75 that i know of used somekind of an oil impregnation process on the V8 cams and maybe even the 6's.
Can we have some reference reading on this? It's new information to me.

FWIW, I've spent a bit of time in cam grinding shops, from major aftermarket to one-man regrinders. The first stop for every cast iron cam, including those for Chevrolet, is the solvent tank, then the grinder, then the solvent tank again, then the last stop,, the bearing journals are masked and it goes into the Parkerizing tank.

thnx, jack vines
