Anyone have a pictorial writeup of a cam install?

Talk about modifications, or anything else associated with performance enhancements. Have a new idea for performance/reliability? Post it here. No idea is stupid! (please use Detailing and Appearance for cosmetic ideas)

Just a reminder that the harmonic balancer and camshaft bolts are both torque to yield so new bolts should be used during installation. Also be advised that flying tools and profanity seem to be the norm while trying to break the camshaft bolt loose...its shallow head makes it a pita to torque on. :wink:

No reason. Did it when I got a chance, realized the question was on different forum, provided a link.

His info, why does it matter? Also, for $17 get a new timing chain dampner....it cost me an engine when I re-used an old one which cracked and went through the bearings!
