First of all, sorry for your loss Jason, I lost my father when he was a very young 51 to cancer. It is a rotten disease. Keep his memory alive and know he will always be proud of you.

It may be late to mention this or maybe you are aware but the most important is the first 20 minutes while breaking in the cam. It is important to valve train life.

They say go easy for the first 500 miles and I think if it is going to break it will with in the first 50 no matter how you drive it.

Good Luck, Have Fun and Happy Holidays
