got driver side in but i got pass half way in and keep spinning the cam wont go in anymore

 

wtf did you just try to say? your typing sucks and your all over the place with your sentence structure which makes it very hard to undertstand wtf your saying some times. Slow down and type clear messages.

 

sorry hands are oilly,,, i got the metal rod in on the driver side but i kan not get the passenger side in keeps getting sstuck half way in even after spinning the cam

 

Hmm, well there were reports of casting flash in some of the holes preventing the rods from working but I thought that was with the 01-02's. Try and take a flashlight and look in the hole and see what you can find.

 

you need to get a wooden dowel from wallmart in the arts in crafts section i had the same problem..wooden one goes in just fine.. lube it up really nice.. and dont worry bout lil splinters or anything... if u look at it.. ull see that it will work just fine.... also DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DO NOT USE PEN MAGNETS! i almost had one fall into the head.. those stupid heads come off really easy.. pen magnets are great for other stuff but not holding up lifters... us use the dowels and ull be fine... seems like your install is going just like mine did.. hang in there.. and get the tool from "918hawk" i beleive it was, for putting the pulley back on.. make life ALOT easier... and what spring compressor did u get? the crane cams one was pretty good..just the stupid people didnt send me anything to secure it to the head..but i was prolly just not very lucky..keep us updated on the install! take it slow, and walk away when u get frustrated... hope you have a 10mm open ratchet wrench.. ITS A MUST!

 

have the metal one in on one side i also hae wood ill do that on the other side thanks... also i do have a 10mm open ratchet hehe

 

right on, you'll get it. takes patience and few beers some times

 

holy moly the wood one went in wow, time to swap

 

pull the cam out slow and twist, keep it level. put the new one in the same way

Ok I'm having a beer now.

 

told ya!

still pull out the cam slowly..i kno the dowels arnt perfect.. and i ussually tend to think of the worst happening... but you should be good to go... get that new cam in there! this is the easy part..lol..oil pump, aligning the dots, and changing springs aquire a few choice words, and a few hours to do..on ur first cam install... did u get a double roller chain?

 

LOL

Hey, Cash. I JUST finished my install today. First one for me also. I still have everything fresh on my mind I will help ya anyway I can. And to the guys here that helped me, thanks alot! Couldnt had done it without ya!

 

dam..reminds me so much of my install last week... i did the same exact thing..came home from work..started on her... finnaly got the new cam in..went to sleep than woke up and took out the oil pump, and chain...oil pump is gunna be LOTZ OF FUN! make sure u tie some fishing line! it will save your *** alot of times! and makes its easier to get it in the hole and try to thread it in... also it helps to have another set of hands up top holding the pump while u try to the tube bolt threded in..youll see once your doing it and dont forget to line up the dots!
