putting my cam in.


I had a buddy pull my old cam out for me. I want to put my fcam in. I was told to buy some cam lube so I did. How should I put that on the cam. Just lube it up. Then slide it in? I was told just to put it in and be gentle on the cam bearings.

It's also easier to get leverage by putting a longer bolt in the front of the cam so you can grab that with your hand when it's almost in.

Thansk for that tip man, it was a bitch cause I got your comment to late... but I see why it would work. I just need to find the torque specs for the two little bolts that going behind the timing sprocket. Then the main bolt.
