ok i give up I went for the complete head again.
was able to get all the bolts on th head free first
and then go for the rest. BUT!
most of my sockets are for 1/4 drive not 3/8
or 1/2, So my brother was helping me and
literally broke my adapter from 3/8 to 1/4
so I couldnt get nothing else off. the exhaust
manifold was still on. the lower intake was still on.

SO now i am just gonna go get a brand new cam
fuck the used. But what I want to know is what am i
all gonna need if i goto a stage 2 roller cam
from racerwalsh? and i mean everything?

the roller followers are $230

that's kinda pointless to pay $350 for the roller, $230 for the followers, and $85 for springs and retainers

where you can pay $170 for a cam that does basically the same thing.. you'd still have to buy the springs and retainers but you'd save like $400
