Sorry, me again.....
Installing a new hyd roller cam tomorrow, re-using factory roller lifters.....
Do I need assembly lube on the cam, or can I install it dry, and pour motor oil through the lifter bores before installing the lifters, rotate it a bit, and pour more oil through?
As roller cams don't need the break-in period that flat tappets do, is motor oil an acceptable lube for initial fire up?
PS It's a steel cam core.
Muchas Garcias! (as in Jerry)
