I bought a comp cam Extreme energy camshaft. I installed it in my mustang. Went through the proper break in. I put cam lube on lifters and lobes. 2000rpm for 15-20 minutes. Changed oil after a couple miles... Bla, bla,bla! Anyways after 14 miles I started to have some rocker chatter. I thought my rockers needed adjusting, but instead it was the lifters. They were worn down between 1/8" -1/4" on the bottoms. The part that rides on the cam lobes. Some even had holes right into the lifter. Obviously the cam lobes are worn bad, also the bores in which the lifters move in are scratched badly and the lifters are all toast!
What a crock! I talked to a few different guys this weekend and found 4 other guys that have had the same thing happen with their comp cam. One guy was even on his 3rd cam in 1 year. Why even bother!
Comp cams explanation! "Improper break-in."
Anyone else have this problem?
