You probably bit off more than you can chew. Its not very wise to get slam in the MIDDLE of something like this, then start asking people on the net how to do it.

Regardless though: http://shbox.com/ci/cam_install.html

Good luck. Feel free to PM with any specific questions you run across.

its a doweled camshaft(cant spell).......the only way to change timing would be with offset crank keys. these cams are as simple as they come. no technical degreeing involved.

If you want to actually degree the cam, you can find step-by-step info at most cam supplier's websites. On an LT1 it is mostly used for checking that the cam was ground properly, as most people don't change the cam timing.
