Yes I have - and actually - almost had a catostrophic failure with the LT1 cam due to TOO MUCH ZDDP.

I had foolishly assumed that if one bottle of ZDDP+ was good, then a bottle and a 1/2 would be better insurance -

BOY was I wrong - after 800 miles, the lifters had spalling - but not obvious damage to the cam lobes and it mic-ed out correctly

I do however have more spring pressure than the stock Z28 springs - but not 130-140lbs like the current solid flat tappets want
