Brent Mills How are we doing?? I'm about ready to fly out there and take a look for myself. Give that motor to George and buy the old one back.
Only kidding. We are missing something. 25 guys with expert knowledge and we can't figure out what is going on??? I am not sure but your cam is only a little bigger than mine. I would think that it would have hydru lifters. I am looking at a 533-566 cam with hydro lifters. I just think that your cam could be a hydro that was made or boxed wrong. It has happened. I know you can not put a hydro cam with solid lifters, the ramps get worn down faster because of the wrong hardness of the lobes and bottom of the lifter. I have read that you have to plug the
oil galleys for the different cams. Not sure which ones. The pictures show that the coating on a couple of the rockers where the pushrod sit looked rubbed. You have replaced the top end, rockers,shafts,pushrods,and stands. Problem is still there. Call the cam company and see if they will give you a number on the cam end to see if it is right. I would try this first. Good luck Rick Lake
