oil additive for cam break in

  • I know this topic has evolved. What is the latest consensus on an oil additive to prevent camshaft/lifter failure during initial engine start? Thank you, Paul.

    most new cams come with a tube of installation lube like this:

    that's all I've used.


    Comp cams also sells a line of break-in oil & a break-in oil additive. Neither of which I've ever used, or see the need for. If youy do use either of those products be sure to change the oil filter along with the oil at 500 miles (which you should do anyway) because those products are loaded with graphite. an OK lubricant, but it does plug up oil filters pretty quickly.
