Replacing the cam

[Gearhead999]

I take it that the engine is still in the car. Then you have to remove:

1. Intake Manifold
2. Radiator
3. Water Pump & Fuel Pump
4. Harmonic Balancer
5. Front timing cover
6. Valve Covers
7. All the Rocker Arms
8. All the Push Rods
9. All the Lifters
10. Distributor
11. Timing Chain and Gears
12. Cam Retainer
13. Work Cam out CAREFULLY so as not to bang up the bearings
14. Make room for cam to come out past where the radiator was
15. Scrape Gaskets
16. Coat New cam with Assembly Lube
17. Insert Cam CAREFULLY
18. Install everything you took off
19. Start and Let cam run in per instructions with cam. Usually 2500 rpm for 15 minutes or so. Unless its a roller.
20. Set timing and check for leaks.

Done deal. About 4 to 6 hours depending on how much you drank.
