Sorry if I misunderstood Karl, I thought from what you said above that you rated the strength of both cam and follower, because, after all, a hard cam is nothing without a follower to match, I'm sure you'll agree?
The problem as I see it is that there are no quality manufacturers of CVH hydraulic followers left and certainly the strength of the cam far outweighs that of the follower.
This is coupled with the high spring pressures needed to control the valve-train and that fact that most people over-spring.
That's my opinion anyway.
