Christian,
Given that I probably build more CVH engines than any other tuner out there, as I have NEVER had a newman cam wipe a cam lobe out, I can say with total certainty that their chill cast cam material is far more suitable in a CVH engine. I do however see one common issue which is pitting of the solid follower adjuster screw where it contacts the rocker. This however allthough unsightly, has never caused us any problems.
I do believe from reports on here that some people have had issues with the actual hydraulic follower, but my above statement was based purely on the camshaft material, and not other factors, as hydraulic followers are always debateable in any engine, never mind the CVH.
