I have most of the tools for the job if you want help. I haven't done it before so I'm no expert.

If you want to pay a professional you should bring it to Don Kinder at Slowhawk Performance. You will not be disappointed.

I don't know about "expert", but the ls1howto stuff gives you the basic chunks. There are some inaccurate things on that site such as setting up valvetrains......quite possibly the most important part of finishing up a cam swap.

Sandwich as well.....

I am planning on taking the GTM to Slowhawk once the engine is in so he can dyno tune the car for me.

Sure I will take any help I can get.

We do a ton of Cam swaps here.I totally agree with Damian - seems like nobody knows how to set up a valvetrain which is the most importent.
