Well, seeing how the builder was Barry, there is no doubt it was done right. Guess we can rule out the dyno breakin as the culprit!
....the plot thickens.

...the paperwork that came from the cam has a disclaimer blaming oil for flat tappet cams breaking.

Standard warning, should be applicable to all flat tappet cams.
Oil remains a primary concern with flat tappet cam's, perhaps now even more than ever. USED to be Shell Rotella was OK, not anymore, ZDDP has been drastically reduced in that
oil as well.
So, do you need ZDDP for the life of the cam/motor? Some folks like it for ANY motor, for the life of the motor. Others say you don't need after break in. I use it all the time, always will, just paranoid I guess.
