Default Cam install party next weekend starting Friday the 10th

I have a 4 day weekend next week, so I figured what better time to install the cam and valve springs. I will start some time Friday and go til its done probably sometime Saturday.

Anybody up for an install party? I could certainly use the help. As always I will supply food and drink, and a place for the families to hang out and swim etc if you like.

Thanks in advance

I am gonna get started Thursday evening if possible around 6pm. Then at 8am on Friday. I am hoping to finish it up Friday. So if anyone can make it I could use the company. I hate working by myself.

If it's your first cam install, you will probably be busy the whole weekend.

There is always something that goes unplanned and makes you go to autozone.

Nothing would make me go to Autozone. Nobody there speaks English and all the signs are in Spanish. I cant find a f@#$ing thing in that place and nobody will help you.

OK guys, change of plans. I dont have enough money to have the car tuned after we install the cam, so we have decided to wait. So I may do the springs, but the cam will have to come later. I started getting nervous when I heard about all the issues people have with cams without a tune, so I just want to do it right the first time and not have driveability issues.
