Its not really necessary but it is advised. You never know if something went wrong during the grinding process if you dont degree the cam. It doesnt happen often but it does happen. You should be able to either contact the company you bought the cam from or the maker of the cam and get a new cam card.

If the cam is out then call speed inc and give them the ser# off the cam, they may have the numbers stored somewhere.
