I'm running a comp-cam 68-231-4, while my engine is apart should I switch to a different cam?? The engine ran great and I was happy with it, but I have heard different ones say they've had bad luck with this cam. Whats your opinion?

Run it again(esp since you were happy w/ it). Wait for the comp chimers. . .

While I had one fail, I think you should run it again. I ran two CCs in the past and this is the first one that failed, although the true reason is unknown. Make sure you keep the lifters on the same lobe that they were originally on. If not, use new lifters and re run the break in.
