Crise has a good point there. If the bottom of that lifter is smooth along with the lobe. Both will more then likely be that way. If the lifter literally groaned the lobe off. The contamination will be larger. But will still be very fine. If that engine is in good shape other then the cam. I'd just put a cam in. Pull the oil pan off. The story will be on the bottom of the oil pan Glenn's engine had big chunks everywhere.I had a cam go flat in a 327 Chevy once. Did something that you should never do. Stuck a used cam in with miscellaneous lifters. Went for more than 100,000 miles more. Just got alot of pure dumb luck with those used parts. Bob Dunahugh
