Ya' we put the cam in,fire the car up set the timing and idle check oil pressure and temp..take the car for a blast,come back change oil and filter..We don't start it let it sit there running at 2500 rpms for a certain time,always get a kick out of that..oh and we NEVER had cam failure with this procedure can't say the same for the method everyone else thinks your suppose to use
Yes, I'm with him. I never break in a cam at 2000 rpm for 20 minutes. Make sure it's timed, prefill the carb, start and run at maybe 1400, bliping the gas now and then for 4-5 minutes. Slight cool down, and repeat. I've never wiped a cam.
