Well, if you decide to go cheap at least verify that the lifters are rotating on the camshaft. Then you have a fighting chance. If they aren't rotating I don't care how little spring pressure you are running, the cam lobe won't last.

If the lifters aren't spinning it won't make a bit of difference if they are new or used. It will be instant destruction.

Let's agree to disagree. If you light it up and a lifter is stationary, or barely moving, the 30 seconds it takes to determine this (assuming you've lathered everything up with break-in lube) won't kill the lobe.
