I guess this answers my question. Around 12 years ago I had a friend put a Comp cam into a 440 and it lasted a whole 52 miles before failing like the one in the video. Maybe the bean counters think they'll sell more cams this way, sorry, that's not how it works.

I love the smell of Deer guts in the morning, it smells like... VICTORY!
