...for a flat tappet these days?? Got a new cam from Bullet with a moderate bee-hive spring but don't want to take any chances.

Thanks

DOUBLE CHECK LIFTER ROTATION.ARE THEYB TURNING FREE ENOUGH? CHECK LIFTER CROWNS FOR BEING ON CENTER
99% of flat tappet failures come from the above causes
then break it in with soft springs and don't rely on a secret blend of oil to do it.

Everytime I see one of these my oil is better than your oil posts I ask one simple question.
when have any of you ever seen an engine failure that was directly attributed to the brand of oil being used ?
I'll answer for you none , zero ,nada.
The failures always shows up as part breakage,assemble mistakes,mismatched parts,driver errors.
Clean fresh oil and proper assembly is the secret to longevity.
