    ...but both of my NV intake cams have surface rust - no worries, one of them should clean up. I don't have to worry about changing the oil since the cams are out of the motor - head is off for gasket replacement.

      If you want to get rid of rust without any effort, use metal etcher. Takes it right off.

      Just spray it on, let it sit, spray some more, then wipe away.

        are nv and s50 cams interchangeable? i thought the vanos cams were different.. you did say exhaust cams tho, are s50s only single vanos on the intake side?

          yea, s50/52s are single-vanos (intake)

            ive read up on this before, but its never been exactly clear. on an m50 nv, move intake cam to exhaust side and use s50/2 exhaust cam on intake side. anyone know the specs on both s50ands52 exhaust cams?
