> they are old clamps that are cadmium plated (re-plated)

Is it really cadmium or yellow zinc? I know the factory parts are cadmium but I haven't found anyone in CA that does cadmium plating.

We had an issue with one of the cam oil feeds, replaced and significantly less oil leakage. I went ahead and connects accelerator and clutch cables and took her out for a parking lot tour yesterday. The engine starts and runs smooth!
