Sorry to hear but seems to be a common enough issue when switching to Comp Cam trunion upgrade and not likely Comp Cam will do anything for you.I just installed Che manganese bronze trunion bushings this week to avoid having issues with those needle bearings

I had a camshaft and roller lifters by Comp go bad in a BBC, wouldn't stand behind the parts, we don't make those they said.
