Evo Motorsports has a lengthy write-up on how to do a camshaft install: http://www.evomoto.com/tech_info.php?techID=18

Not something I'd try on my own! :worthy:

[wilson1]

Wow,,, ob4, you really did it!

[evo_dadi]

nice work terry!! did you go with a mix set up(264/272) or paired(264/264)?

[ob4]

Thanks, Marcel! I have the 264/272 cams.

The installation was pretty straight forward. The cam angle sensor bolt was a bit hard to get to, but I have a u-join, so it makes the job a lot easier. The cam gear bolt was also pretty tight, but a good breaker bar will do the job. Make sure that you line up the tdc position for the cams and crank, and not move the crank after the gears and belt is off. There is so much fun and satisfaction in doing your own project and you know you will never do a half ass job.

Nice pics. What type of exhaust system are you using? dp, cat, catback manufactorers.

Was that a standard xflash or did you have it dyno tuned as well?

[ace33joe]

Congratulations, Terry!

Wasn't your Samco hose kit blue?

Anyhow, I hope you like your new cams. :)

[ob4]

ace33joe: the samco hose kit was always red.

[ace33joe]

Haha, I might have been confused. :) Anyhow, red one looks great in your engine room!
