don't want to bug u too much over here but was just wondering about some things... I have a 5.0 that i am working on and i have a e303 cam i am going to put in it.. with a efi is there anyway i can put the cam in without pulling the intake??? or is it easier to pull the intake so u can put the lifters back if they fall out. thanks for any help..

Some companies sell a tool, 50 resto i think and AFM have it. Basically rods with little magnets on the ends that you put where the pushrods go and the pull/hold the lifters up for you.

alright cool i had also heard something about using an air compressor but that sounds like more trouble than it is worth also these will be ok with stock heads correct i don't want the valve to hit the piston since it came out of an 88 and i heard that it gets real close. i have heads on order but i am going to put the cam in and get everything ready to put the new heads on when they come.

Engine Suggestions on an engine rebuild. Stock cam/GT40Ps or aftermarket on both for a fun weekend driver?
