    Comp Cams Factory Tour & Behind The Scenes: How Does a Performance Camshaft Get Made?

    when I build my engines , I check each lifter in the hole and hones them until they move freely. and clean the block and make sure the cam is lube properly. if you have really hard springs they recommend you break in cam with lighter springs. I ve never had a cam break in issue yet im over 50

    on older engines carbon built up on the intake valves acts like a sponge and and cause stumbling So much so that GM had a TSB on the fire engine , we would remove injectors and blast off the intake valves wit a coconut like (sand but not ) in the engine and that stumble would go away
