[QUOTE="JeepDawg25, post: 436420, member: 20649"] Thanks - I am just not sure if the guiding the cam in will be possible without scraping or dinging the bearings. Are the bearings pretty resilient in that regard or is it a valid concern? I would put in new lifters with the new cam. I am weighing my options because I tried new lifters a few weeks ago and one got chewed up immediately (like within 3 miles of driving after the break in). See picture below of the chewed lifter next to a normal one - I have to assume there is significant damage to the correlated cam lobe right? [ATTACH type="full"]120525[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
