Goodbye Crane Flat Tappet. I hardly knew ye.

Thanks for a very thoughtful and insightful response. I wish I hadn't blown up at RRR'S response but I love my car and it is stressful when something happens to it. Plus, Mopar stuff just isn't cheap. Not to mention ever since bolting the procomp stuff on I've had nothing but sorrow. So, cam failure is the cherry on top of this big adventure.

I hear you. But it could have been worse. If the cam truly lunched and sent chunks throughout the bottom end and oil pump, you could be looking at a total rebuild. Count your blessings.
And keep us posted on which cam and grind you choose. Enquiring minds want to know.:D
