Get some ISKY's "Rev Lube" to smear on the cam lobes and lifter bottoms. Break the motor in with straight 30w break in oil. Comps Magnum 3/8" push rods with new guide plates and you should be good to go. Bring that motor up to 2000 rpm immediately and keep it there for at least 20 minutes, 25 to be safe. Need to have the dizzy timing close and somebody with a timing gun under the hood ready to fine tune that dizzy while you hold the R's and watch the oil pressure and temp gauges. If something goes south or a leak is detected kill the motor immediately and fix the problem. Where a lot of guys kill their cams is letting the motor idle while a leak is chased or a funny sound shows up. Kill the motor or run it up to 2K and bouncing it up to 2500 occasionally during the break in is ok because the idea is breaking up the splash pattern getting oil to every spot on that cam. Having an infrared temp gauge is good for monitoring each exhaust port tube. The big blocks timing is very much the same as a 350 so 12-15 initial and 35 total all in at 3000 rpm is damn close...Good luck! No apologies for the long writ, Big Blocks are big subjects!
