newb cam install ?

can you swap the cams with all the valve train back togather?

reason asking is, i just got done swaping all the valve springs but i'm still waiting for my oil pump and timing set to come in so i figured i would get all that done while i'm waiting.

Yes, but you will have to remove the rockers and pushrods.

just make sure you slide a wooden dowel in to hold up the lifters!
