Does anyone have any thoughts good or bad about using Blaster graphite dry lube on a new flat tappet cam for break in?

Thanks

The stuff in a spay can? I can't imagine that would be good for the rest of the engine, even if it was good for the cam.

I have been using Dow Corning Molykote 321D Dry Film with good success. Open link on the right,,,,,, http://www.firstpowergroupllc.com/DC...lykote_321.pdf. I also use Isky Rev Lube on the lobes, use a Gibbs break in oil, , and set the springs up soft by using a + .050 lock. The + .050 will drop the spring pressure 20 to 30 lbs. After the cam has a chance to run in and things are OK. I change out the + .050 locks for a standard one.
