Default Cam flat brand new 50 miles ???

Got another one of these cam going flat with less than 50 miles on them. My buddies solid flat tappet Lunati cam, BBC 427, cam lube used very generoisly, careful breakin' , proper spring tension.High quality oil.
This has come up a few time recently.As it has in the past, We get alot of different answers about why, some say steel quality,some say improper break in, some say it is the lack of the oil to lubricate, some say spring pressures. Maybe some times this is true ....but in this case I think all waas done properly.
Wha are you guys feelings on this
Interested. Also do you think Lunati will be open to talking to him ?
