My previous cam had .600 lift with duration around 250s @.050. Looking for any suggestion on experience with other cams. I would prefer an off the shelf cam to speed up down time. I will also be changing out my valve springs and pushrods to match the new hyd cam. Anyone use the MUTHA Thumper cam from comp? Thanks for any advice. Berm

How many miles did it take to wipe the lobes? How bad are the lobes how much is the actual wear? What platform is your motor based on, 351 cleveland or windsor? What kind of spring pressure are you running?
