      havent done it on a 3.4 yet but....remove upper plenum, valve covers, lower intake, pull pushrods and lifters out, remove timing cover, might have to remove waterpump for that, then unbolt the timing chain, retainer plate, pull cam out carefully, don't knick the bearings, same on the way back in withthe new one. line up the dots on the sprockets and re install the timing chain, reassemble everytihing, make sure to adjust rockers properly, quarter turn past zero lash, use new lifters adn pushrods.

          it doesnt matter where the pistons are positioned, just line up the dots on the timing sprokets where both dots are inline, crank one at 12 and cam one at 6 [img]smile.gif[/img]

              One very important thing he forgot that has to come out :) The oil gear in the back left hand side of the block. It will look like a small silver cap. Pull it straight up. Might take some force but it will come out. Make sure you replace the seal. DO NOT USE THE OLD RING SEAL.


              The water pump comes off with the timing cover. They are attached. Make sure you use all new seals.
