That's awesome thunder. I'm jealous now. I wish I lived near Blown lol. What was the toughest part of the install? Wondering if I can attempted it on my own next summer. I mean even at $400 I think it's worth it.

to be honest the hardest part was just getting to the cams. just dismantling the fuel rail is a little time consuming but its not bad. if you have a buddy and a Haynes manual its not bad.

Here is my CAM Swap F.A.Q. thread.

Like Thunder said, getting to the cams is the most time consuming part of the task. Once you get to the cams, put piston #1 at TDC (Top Dead Center) with both the V8s in the 12 oclock position. Before you do anything take a paint marker and market 3 spots on both camshaft sprockets.
