RE: That is an odd failure.

He said that they noticed the sound right away. But they thought it was a lifter that hadden't got properly lubed yet. It wasn't a full steady 8 minutes. He had to start and stop it a couple times because of starter failure. He said the oil pressure was really good. He put a high volume oil pump and that there was plenty of oil when he pulled the lifter out. Since I wasn't there I don't know all the little details. I appreciate all your responses. Last I heard he is pulling the engine apart this weekend to see if any more damage had been done. The store that he bought the cam and lifters from is wanting to send them back to the manufacturer to see if it was a bad part. Man that's gotta suck.
