Thanks, [/ QUOTE ] Direct oil supply to the cam/lifter mating surfaces helps ensure the cam and lifters survive.

I just got my L72 Original Paint Corvette back together with the help of your camshaft. It runs like a bear and I'm still breaking in the motor and working through dialing in the carburetor. Thanks for all of your help, Ed  [image]  [/image]

The cam has good idle quality and pulls like a $#@@%$! It really lights up after 4,500 RPM!
