I also know that the cam install on those cars is not the most difficult thing in the world. If he has another car/wont mind being without one for a weekend, why not attempt it yourselves?

Having a lift helps since the motor has to be dropped down so you can go through the wheel well.

Were a little farther away, but I can do it. I've been modding them for years weekly No problems, done many.
Pm me if you have any questions on supporting mods, and such. Theres some common talked about things about 3800 valve train I don't agree with. And I set cars up like my own with great success.
