Heya
I had an oopsie when I put my motor together - I ended up bending a couple pushrods and wasting some lifters due to my own ignorance
..... I think I told you I was a hack......
ANYWAYS
I pulled the lifters out (they were sooo toasted) and I got scared that the cam may have crapped the bed too, but to my surprise, as I looked into the bores and turned the motor over - - NOTHING! No wear, no scuffs, nothing bad, just nice new cam. So I'll say that this cam is pretty tough - I've put 2000 miles on it since then and I keep checking my valve clearances just to make sure ( I even had the heads off for another reason and did a double check of the lifters and cam, and everything seems nicely broken in and fresh).
