RE: installing cam

Put white engine grease on all of the cam lobes, and after 30 minutes of idling change the oil and filter to get rid of that garbage. Be extremely careful when installing the cam. Don't force it. You knock a cam bearing out of alignment and you've got a lot of work ahead of you. They're pretty durable, but be very careful.
