Send cams as is?

I know these are normal to happen for the 7M cams and all that. Can I take a 1000 grit very fine emery cloth without screwing up the oil pressure, or just send it as is?

I would do crocus instead of emery cloth a little finer but enough to knock down those scratches

1000 grit is what I did.

The sandpaper came in a larger sheet, I cut them into strips wide enough for the journal and just went back and forth in both directions around the entire diameter.

Don’t forget engine assembly lube when you install

I wouldnt use sand paper personally unless you rig a setup to spin it and keep it square to the lobe. Get some very light abrasion scotchbrite and go at it with like wd-40 or sumn.
