Over the last 10 years, I would estimate my buds and me wipe out roughly 1 in 20 cams. Most of us are quite picky on assembly and break-in. Last two cams I wiped out were a 292H comp cam (hydraulic) and a 298HR hydraulic nitrous roller cam. Comp cam gave me a new roller cam on the second time.

Good luck. Let us know how the next break in goes.
