    Cam Questions

    Unless you mean VALVE COVER gaskets, return them. You dont need new cam gears. You dont need to pull the timing cover. Pull the valve covers off, remove the cam tensioners, put the motor to TDC, remove cam bolt, have somebody hold the chain and DONT let it move!, slip out old cam- put in...

The only thing that concerns me is how to get the alignment done. would a regular alignment shop know how to work with these things (assuming I buy the Steeda kit)?
