I mark my pushrods and make sure they are spinning while rolling the crank. I'm told the lifter is always the cause of wiped cams and the cam has nothing to do with it. Howards also told me nitrating is a waste of money and someone just taking your money because of this. check your lifters and make sure they spin while cranking. EDM lifters with good oil high in zinc and phosphate as well.
this statement should read " IF THE LIFTER DOESNT SPIN , FAILURE IS COMING QUICKLY" !! it is a good idea to make sure their is rotation in the lifters ......
