Thats just weird. I don't get how some are lasting. Devon's motor had 10 hours on it and cams were toast. Stock cams, stock valves, kb springs.

Happy only reason some could last like mine did is because the stock cams I have must be hardened correctly.But I am not willing to hardness test my cams since they would be ruined by doing so unless someone can find a method.Eddy current testing is only method I have found but cant find anyone to do it.I ran 11500rev whole time.
