I don’t understand why, especially with flat hydraulic cams, that cam companies don’t sell “broken in” sets of cam and lifters. Seems like if you devised a simple set up with an old block, a strong electric motor, a good oil pump and adequate valve spring pressure it wouldn’t be that hard to do [emoji2369]
Nothing more nerve wracking than firing up a totally brand new motor knowing that if you don’t get it fired and spinning 2000+ rpm right away that you could wipe a cam lobe and are now facing all of the related hassle and expense that causes. Just a thought.
