Cam Install
 
Anyone have a right up on installing cams? And how hard is it?

It's an all day adventure with the motor in the car. Not really HARD but difficult enough that you should have it done if you're not a wrench by trade. There are a lot of ways you can screw yourself doing it.

If you have the engine out of the car, it's a lot easier but no less technical.

redneck is right.. installing cams is pretty cut and dry, the modulardepot links are very helpful also.

it's a helluva lot easier on OHC cars than OHV cars. There are a few tricks and tips in the various procedures on the web that are important.

DON'T MIX UP YOUR CAM CAPS. That's all the advice I have for you.

Thanks yall.

1 last ?.... Im planning to put turbos on in about a year or so, should I go ahead and get the turbo cams now from VT or wait and get them later?

you dont want blower cams for a turbo'd car...u want turbo cams....or a custom grind cam....

i would wait for the cam cause the type of cam u want doesn't really like N/A motors.....blower cams on the other hand are great for n/a..just be sure u want a turbo cam

blower cam for s/c
turbo cam for turbos
