theres your problem right away...reprofiled cams...removes metal from base circle...lifters need to extend more to make contact...casuing them to wear out alot sooner...cams from blanks are only real way to go. kent 1612s are no good compared to standard, standard over 1612s anyday, more midrange and torque all the way across the revs...got back to back rolling road printouts to prove
