One other silly advantage of the mushrooms is that if a pushrod failure occurs you still have oil pressure, not like a standard lifter. My 426W died from that problem, adjuster backed off, pushrod & lifter cam out, no oil pressure. Seized up twice on the return road. Towed it home, had to chisel the rod bearings off the crank. One more advantage of the mushroom.
Edit: Still my favorite cam. Big power, unless you take it to 8400 RPM with wedge valve train. OOPs
Second Edit: My 8400 RPM experience was broken valve spring, pushrod. Replaced those. Next weekend discovered the edge of the mushroom lifter had broken off, flattened the cam lobe. Called GK asked for a replacement mushroom cam. The guy on the phone sounded like an old timer. When I told him my mushroom cam made as power as my best roller cams, he said ya, the mushroom grinds accelerate the valve like a roller. That's why I still have it on the shelf. I bet my 512 would like it, especially with a 1.6 rocker.
