Whats the best method of running in used cams on new lifters?

 

Follow the instructions given, which are normally don't let the revs drop below about 2000rpm for first 20 mins or so.

Thanks for that. Similar to a pinto then, is this a standard for all cams?

 

Depends on the engine. I'd never bother fitting new lifters to an old CVH cam for example - the worn cam lobes would wreck the new lifters in minutes and you'd be back where you started.

Where I've fitted them as a it I've always done as Tabetha suggests above. Use the lube supplied and then sustained RPM between 2500 and 3000 for about 20 minutues, and never let it drop to idle until the 20 minutes is up.
