I have been running the 60511 for the last year and although I love the cam, I am seriously considering swapping to the newer/bigger 60515. I just worry my LQ4's stock 9.4 CR won't like the larger duration....

I guess worse case I can take the spare set of 5.3 heads and put some larger intake valves with some mild porting to get the CR into the 10.5+ range.

FWIW I bought a lunati voodoo cam for a L98 in a vette once and when I installed it, it ran great for about 2 months and then it wiped a lobe. I pulled the cam out and it had holes all in the main journals where it rode in the block and all the lobes looked like crap. I used the lifters that came with it and some harland sharp roller rockers. Lunati said it was a "soft" cam. They wouldnt refund my money for the cam only offered to send me another one...... I just took that hit and went and bought a comp cam and it ran like a champ till I finally got rid of the car. I will NEVER buy another Lunati cam. Comp all the way. I know this roller set up is a whole different ball game but I was just sharing my personal expierence with Lunati.

To each his own of course, but I love my VooDoo cam, it's performed well above what I could ever have expected from such a small grind (times in sig), I've had mine in for over 5 years now with no issues whatsoever and on 3-4 years of spray

Maybe you got a bad batch or something, it suchs that Lunati gave you a hard time.
