How common is it that a cam (even a new 1 like SD65 describes) dissolves like this?? 150 miles in!!?? Can you sue, "kill", or banish to he!! the company that sells such a "high" quality part?? Friend is rebuilding his motor currently, he found he lost a lobe and concaved a lifter as described, but had more mileage on his, maybe 10K. Still seems unacceptable. His was a reground, so I find his predicament a lil less shocking, but was still a Crane or Comp, I forget...seemed bad to me. I have often heard of soft cams, but just how prevailant is this?? How can a company that makes such a critical part allow such garbage to reach the customer? I'm guessing this may be sounding niave to the guys that do alot of engine work, but since I suspect I'll be doing a rebuild in the not too distant future, is there anyway to avoid this?? Or, no matter what you buy/spend can you run into this situation?? I appreciate your input!!
