I had heard letting it idle can be bad because you are not at optimum oil pressure. Some say to prime the motor, start it, and drive around for 10min or so under 3k to let the cams wear in. As appose to just letting it sit for 10min...
Any thoughts?
Also, do you all use assembly lube when you install cams?

YES! Definitely use a decent amount of assembly lube when you put them in, everytime to put cams it, it doesn't matter if they are new or used.
As for letting them idle, I think it should be fine. I get plenty of oil in the head at idle.
