Did not do a compression check after the new cam.
Only got to the point of the video of the valves opening and closing, did not measure the lift.
I'm going to take out the lifters and verify the break in before I do anything else.
The tech was heavily leaning towards a bad break in. Not even anything I did. He said there's a small percentage of bad break ins in his experience and he's a Pontiac guy from way back. He said what I'm describing is exactly what happens. The sound. The pop out the carb.
