What lube did you use on the pushrod ends?

You will be a very lucky man to have the cam survive a 2nd set of lifters, since it's already bedded in to the 1st set of lifters.

Since the cam lost no lobes, best choice is to have it reground using a better profile over the current lobe centres. K or VV-61 ground on the C lobes would make good cam.
