cam thrust question

[brayden_winkles]

hi, im installing a new hydraulic flat tappet cam in a 440. is it normal to have forward to rear thrust? if so how much? if not is this problem correctable? the new timing set is visually similar and the cams old and new side by side appear similar. thanks in advance everyone.
