M112 camshafts in m112k?

With the spinning camshaft lobe issue on the early m112k and the cost of the k cams being absurd, has anybody had success with 3.7 or na 3,2 later year cams in the m112k? What cams are interchangeable and what are the specs vs the amg32 cams?

I have enough parts to assemble a good m112k engine, but the cams are what destroyed the 74,000 mile engine, and not willing to take the chance on early cams.

No, but I would guess the early 112 cams and possibly all the 112 cams are press fit lobes. Tempted to get a 3.7 112 and smaller blower pulley and see how that works with the stock pistons.
