[Tigers] Fuel pump question

[CoolVT at aol.com]

Seems to me there was an article in Hot Rod Magazine a few years back  on 
bad batches of cams.  Can't remember the manufacturer or  application.

Just as  an aside, this all could be a  red herring. I had my engine built
and  we failed two cams right on the startup. Actually one starting up on  
the
dyno for a break in and the next rebuild after about 25 miles. Turned  out 
to
be due to using flat tappets and the new oils not being up to the  task. 
Went
to roller rockers and Rotella T oil  and so far no issues  on the 3rd
generation rebuild.

Thanks for all comments, they are very helpful. Yes, they knew  it was a
tiger rebuild; they know the car already from a few repairs done  there. I
assume they knew it has an electric pump after putting the motor  back
together and into the car. I'll keep the list posted.
