Yes I have a (nearly) new C-cam. The C does exactly the same thing, but since you need to look exactly perpendicular and with the lobe and cam both beeing 100% flat, there is no use of making a pic: you cannot make it visable in a camera. When looking along side of the lifter you can see how the contact area moves to the side of the lifter, and therefore decreases in size, and thus creating the wear patterns I posted. This can also not be made visable in pictures, which is why I made some drawings.
If you say this is not true, and the contact stays in the middle of the lifter, it would result in a 1:1 valve lobe shape vs. lifter action. As is concluded before this is NOT the case.
All I can say is, please check it, and you'll see what is actually happeing down there.

Cheers, Ben
