Pretty much whenever... I have nothing to do anymore as I got dicked out of my job. Just make sure you've got all the crap to do it...running to the parts store sucks.
Gaskets, timing chain, coolant, oil, etc., etc. hahaha Shouldn't be too hard, just time consuming.

Does this number mean anything?Originally posted by RChevy.48@Mar 31 2004, 11:06 AM
This is the number on the end of the camshaft.

Hitman: I will start gathering the things I need, I didn't realize I needed a new timing chain. Why is that?
Thanks,

Your stock springs will work fine with that cam. You can swap the cam in an afternoon with no special tools. Have a good 6pt 8mm socket for the rockers,and grease your cam good before inserting.
