I'm absolutely amazed that an OIL MANUFACTURER claims that you need to use THEIR break-in oil for a roller cam. If you go to Comp Cams website and pull up the instructions for installing their cams, oddly enough, the flat-tappet cams have a specific break-in procedure listed in steps. The instructions for the rollers don't even mention a break-in procedure anywhere on the document.

If my cam manufacturer doesn't tell me that I need to break in my roller cam, I'll take their word over an oil producer any day of the week. Will the oil people warranty my cam if it fails? Yeah, I didn't think so.
