Make sure you use hardened lifters when you put it back together or you'll
wipe your new cam pretty quickly. You can get them from British Frame &
Engine. Does your engine has cam bearings installed? These engines did not
have them from the factory and you can't retrofit them without removing the
engine, but if your block has already been modified to accept them then you
may as well replace them.
The big question I would ask is WHY did the cam fail? Was it improperly
hardened lifters? Insufficient lubrication? Stiff/binding valve springs?
You want to make sure it doesn't happen again.
