I chucked one right after a rebuild. I was breaking the motor in and heard a god awful tick from the valve train. Jeff told me the easy way to fix it and I've not had an issue since. 

@Jeff G 78 got instant hero status and respect from this guy. If you're ever in Alabama dinner and drinks are on me.

I went from MI to AZ, so I think I'm just as far away from you as I was before.  Same goes to you Cliff.  If you ever make it to the desert, let me know.

There's 395 miles on it

For 395 miles it looks in good shape.  I wouldn't mess with it, since it's not broke.  My uncalibrated eye gauge estimates that you still have 90% of the load bearing area left and no damage has been done.  Why disturb it now.

ZH: I'll check it again in Fall and see what it looks like. Thanks for the help (once again).
