Im still in dog house for takin Debs car to end of season cruise last fall while she was at work! She took my key!

Do it right if you can, but IMO you could get by short term.

fwiw seat pressure doesnt have as much effect on cam wear as over the nose pressure. The heads/springs on Debs car were on my old 440 combo with solid cam... around .570" net lift... cam wear wasnt an issue on that and so far no issue on the little Crower hyd in Debs car. Both cams I used standard hyd/solid lifters "cool face" was kind of new when I did Debs, not known when I had the 440 combo... I've always run STP since a chevy cam went on me in the 70's.
