Looking to install used cam..good idea?
If I buy a used cam and install proper springs, retainers, and pushrods is there any worry about reusing the old lifters? Is this a good idea? I have heard that wear patterns are in the lifters and could compromise the cam. Thanks for your help.

There's no reason you cant have a good long life out of a used camshaft. The main thing is look it over real well & make sure it's in great condition before you purchase it.
If your looking for a lightly used camshaft we have tons of dyno test only camshafts here in stock that we are offering for $325 if memory serves me correctly.
