New camshaft questions - 09/16/07 04:04 PM
Hi!
A bought a new camshaft for my used Chevy 250 engine. It's a 270H Isky cam & all (matching lifters,
springs, retainers, etc).
The first question is about the cam bearings. Is it possible to change it just opening the oilpan?
The second one is about the 'cam degreeing'. The engine is 30k miles used. Will it be possible
to degree at 0 degrees exactly for an example? Or it can't be 'degreed' exactly?
The third one is about its fitment. When installing a new cam I heard that it's important to run it
at high revs for a while, to fit it right. Is it true?
Thanks a lot!!!
