It is just one of them things , look at all the cheve's that ate cams , cummins small cams would fail even seen them on ford oliver john deere it does not matter loose tappet a cam fallower sezze up one part harder then the other a pice of dirt or metal chops one and not changing the oil or the wrong oil heck there is alot of reasons that could cause it . My 1486 had a bad cam because now get this someone put the valve cover on backwardsand it took out #5 cly lobes you culd see the ware on the valve cover from the rocker arms . For all the years that i have been twisten nuts and bolts nothing suprises me anymore. They have new aftermarket cams for you and the lifters . Now i would advise that you put new cam bearing in when you install the new cam , yea i know it is a bunch of work getting the engine out but you won't have to do it again . When i installed mine i was tryen to cheet and just pulled the head and ft. off well that went well BUT when i got it all back together guess what i lost oil pressure so i had to pull it back down and replace the cam bearings so i had to do the job twice and i don't like that . I went with the new high lift cam and changed the valve cover and breather to the B seires engine .
