Like I said, we’ll be looking to hear what Isky has to say, but the fact is at this point that after 200 miles we have 16 lifters where the bushings are worn out.

The whole motor has been torn down to make sure any metal that may have been pumped through motor didn’t do any unseen damage.

Everything else was good.

The only issues were that the bushings and wheels on the lifters are shot, and the cam is scored up.........like what you’d expect to see if the wheels on the lifters were skidding instead of rolling.

Hopefully between Comp looking the cam over, and Isky looking the lifters over we can get a more definitive answer as to why this happened.
