Cam install

[Darkness_X2]

The 5.3 in my trusty 00 is slowly pissin coolant out the left tailpipe..... , i dont have the time to pull the heads and have em checked out, re-surfaced, bolt em back on etc. ,But me and my freinds could put in my Spare engine in a couple of hours

Sooo its finally time to throw in my spare engine, I figure i might as well throw a decent cam in it before it goes in...

So what im wantin is some info, on what Stuff im gonna need, ie... fancy tools i dont have and anything you think is worth knowing before i get frustrated and say "The hell with This, lets go drink some beer". Never done a Cam Swap on a LSX engine..., it seems simple enough. but some advice would be nice.

thanks

Twice with SC&#39;s cam and once on my own. Remember that those directions are for a Camamro/TA so a few little things are different, you will see when you get there
