I wiped out ALL the lobes on a Comp 280H Magnum camshaft in a 289. Not to scare you, but the engine was never the same. Low oil pressure that just kept getting lower over time. When I did the tear-down all the bearings were hurt, layers of the cam bearings were peeling off.
Fwiw, it wasn't the cam's fault...I had a coolant leak in the oil. Chocolate milkshake. nfg.
