Cam Install Kits

Re: Cam Install Kits

Of course I can turn a wrench. In fact, my dad's an AP mech, and I help him out when needed. Right now we've got his 83 VW Diesel truck pulled apart in the shed to do a head swap on it. He just says everyone says our cars are a PITA to work on, especially when it comes to doing motor work. Compared to other vehicles/object, how hard would you say it is?

if that is the case, then you will be fine. It is not any different than any other car other than the engine lift bracket on the backside is a pain for taking valve covers off and such, hammer it back to get it out of the way or you can try removing it from the bottom.

otherwise it is going to be the same as any other car, and the nice thing about it is that the engine can stay in the car for the swap, some cars you need to drop or pull the engine to fit the cam in

Re: Cam Install Kits

A cam swap isn't too bad. I ended up sitting in the engine bay once I
got the upper plenum off. I just sat on the 'crossmember' and rested my
feet on the swaybar and I didn't have any trouble reaching stuff. Just
take your time and you'll be fine.
