Changing the cam is easy. I'll get to telling you how tomorrow unless someone else gets to it. Time for me to hit the sack.
Just out of curiosity what are the specs on that cam? Gtex used to run one and he might try to talk you out of it. He would have good reason depending on the cam specs. Some of their cams are very big but very lazy about getting the valves open and closed.

I just decided to do the same thing on a rebuilt motor with about 10,000 miles. The Camshaft bearings are scuffed and need to be replaced. Does anybod know how to replace the bearings? Do I have to pull the crankshaft out? Where can I find the instalation tool?
Any help would be appreciated.
