Ya I think we did the cam bearings and the cam were put in by the machine shop and the guy that did it has been doing it for 45 years I think I might have RTV it it! and I have 4000 miles on the rebuild. If the bearings were put in wrong could it have made it 4000 miles or would I have had problems from the start?

it would have been from the start along with the rtv.

I think we did the cam bearings??

no matter what, you are talking about a tear down here to determine the issue.
