I dont think there is any material or cam fabrication problems. More likley as what Jack says. OR, something with the break in.
One may scuff hte brake in lube away from the lifters by to loong cranking period of the starter. Then if the rpm dont raise to 2000, becouse of idle afjustments on the new carb,the situation become even worse.
THE FIRST COUPPLE OF REVELUTION IS MOST IMPORTANT.
Here the cam lube makes its work, but not for very long if the engine dont fire up.
