What is a hydraulic flat cam?
The flat tappet, be it hydraulic or mechanical, rides slightly to one side of the cam lobe, which causes the lifter to spin on the lobe for more uniform wear. The cam lobe is machined with a slight taper, which causes the lifter to ride the taper allowing the lifter to spin as it rides the lobe.

How much zinc does it take to break a cam?
Current API SM and SN oil limit ZDDP (zinc and phosphorous) levels to 800 ppm. While ZDDP break-in level recommendations for flat-tappet camshafts vary widely, it appears that concentrations of around 1,500 ppm or above are appropriate, and as you can see from our testing, most of the break-in oils achieve that level.
How long does it take to break in a camshaft?
