Default Cam Problems

Well, the Saga of the Devil Engine continues.....To Make a long story short....two years ago I had the Engine in the 66 Convert rebuilt to take it on the Power Tour, had problems, took it out and back to the guy that rebuilt it....and.....let's just say that we aren't friends anymore....got it back aftert 6 months and finally got around to putting it back in the Convert about a month ago..........EOS,Rotella, Pre-lubed, started on the first revolution, ran it at 2400 RPM for a 1/2 hour......Life is good........Stock 360 H.P. hydraulic Cam........Took it out for a ride last week and put about 30 miles on it, by the time I got back home it sounded like I was running an out of adjustment solid lifter engine..........It ate the Camshaft.........Don't you just hate when that Happens

Cam and Lifters "were" New..........
