          Mind if I ask what application you need s52 cams, but not s50 cams, for? Generally, s50 cams will work where s52 cams won't, but not vice-versa. The core of the s52's is bigger and doesn't clear m50/s50 cam trays.

              Yeah, s50 cams will work just as well as s52. Same specs.

                  No, that's what I'm saying, s50 cams bolt right into m50/m52/s50/s52 cam trays. It's the s52 cam that only bolts into m52/s52 cam trays.

                  So if you have an m52, you can use s50 or s52 cams, it makes no difference.

                  If you have an m50, you need s50 cams, or s52 cams with s52 cam trays.
