Torquer 2 = Valve Breaker?
Torquer 2 = Valve Breaker? Let me start with this... 
... 
...
Okay, I was dead set on the Torquer 2 (mods in sig) until a friend of mine (Mustang guy) called the cam I was getting a valve breaker...wtf?
It's not too late to change my mind as my order with TSP is still pending.
I need some input here to put my mind at ease. Anyone have problems with a cam this size (which isn't THAT big anyway). I mean with the proper supporting mods (dual springs, ti retainers, hardened pushrods) I shouldn't have a problem right?
Just when I thought I was 100% positive on the cam I selected
Debating on just getting a 224 again.

Is there anything I can do wrong (other than something incredibly obvious, like leaving a rocker out) during the install to maximize the possibilities of any kind of drivetrain failures?

Verdad Gallardo Alright guys, screw it. I'm gonna complete my order Monday. Just wanted to make sure I was making the right decision before it was too late. Thanks again for the words of encouragement. Hopefully by the time you hear back from me, I'll be posting in the dyno section.
