Wait, one person gets a bad cam from a major manufacture with a very good success record and you are doubting the purchase? So there was one flawed casting in the 10 - 100 thousand they make a year. Shit happens man, its still a great company.

good luck finding a company that has never had a manufacture defect slip out the door.

who can say it was even a defect? for all we know it wasnt lubed properly during installation and sized in the head and then snapped. in which case it would have been user error in installation.

dont know if that is the case here or not, but i have seen them sieze up before.
