why did you replace camshaft?

I can't believe no one noticed you used Bosch plugs. I would guess that is the misfire issue before anything else. you need Denso or NGK. even german cars run NGK. I've always had issues with Bosch plugs.

$1400 is a lot of money. you could buy a complete engine with less than 20,000 miles on it for like $700

Ok there is no way to find a 20.000 miles engine. If you do, they are lying to you. But anyways I think that you have a point on the spark plugs. And really 1400 to rebuild the engine are a lot of money. You could buy a used one for less. Anyways. I hope everything will be fine now.
