Which is an easier job, installing a cam or removing the dash? I've done a cam but taking out that dash looks scary....lol

Here is an easy way. I did this many years ago. I just took it all out as my new bars go through the heater box now

So can this be done w/ the engine in the bay or not? From the looks of it, it just looks like they butched the hell out of the box in the bay and then threw a cover plate, right?
