You want to spend like $2k for no real performance increase?? Why???
Just because the lift/duration numbers are the same doesn't make the cams the same. You should call Tyler Crocket

long story short. Went for à tuned 3 week ago. Made 635 hp 722 tq . Everything was perfect . Went back home Québec. Put engine in boat went for à first ride everyting was ok didn't go over 3000 rpm ( wife was there doesn't like speeding ) couple day later went back alone. Try real pull engine wouldnt go over 4600rpm whit à weird noise . It's was a #3 intake lifter ( flat tappet engine )eating it self aswell as the cam . Engine is apart . I already talk whit Tyler . He told me you change the cam you change the tuned. And need to be hydrolic roller . This is why im asking this question . Other option is to leave it flat tappet whit same cam ( new ) , but whit waht happen im not really sure ... what would you do ?? If cam spec are not the same I need to retuned ecu that meen money I already put on tuned and travel to Michigan goes to garbage.

Any pictures of the bad lifter? A failure that early would make me think something happened during the break in. What brand lifters did you use?

So the engine was not refreshed when the pro charger was installed? You added the pro charger to a good working engine, and then the lifter failed?

Is it a stock 502? To get those power numbers out of a stock 502 I would think you need quite a bit of boost
