Re: Need help with my first 350 sbc

If it happens to be the cam it's likely bad news.
As the lobe and lifter in question ground down, they would have distributed metal particulates throughout the oiling system ultimately finding their way into the rod and crank journals. Installing a new cam kit may nurse it along for a while, but as you can imagine there will be collateral damage.
