Subject: Flat Tappet Camshaft Problems


Recently, I've heard & read a number of complaints about fast cam lobe wear.
There's been a lot of speculation re. metals & lubes.

A couple of days ago, Larry Dent sent me a PDF of a Tech Bulletin released
by Comp Cams in April last year.  After reading it, it seems they have a
number of possible fixes for the problem.

Since PDF's can't be attached to messages on this Digest, I spoke to Comp
Cams & now have a MS Word doc of the bulletin.  It is 816 words in length.
And, while it would be very helpful to members of this list, I don't want to
"swamp" the list by posting the whole thing unless enough of you want it.

So, please let me know - should I post the Word doc or not?
