New mech cam/not removing in spring tricks?

I had to replace the cam, lifters, the oil pump, and the rod and main bearings. It was about a thousand dollars and a huge amount of work for my brand new motor that had about 20 minutes of run time. I was so bummed and frustrated that WOW----I didnt know a lobe going flat would cause all that damage!!!
I will take my time and remove the inner springs then drive it to church on Sunday if I have too!!
Thanks for your replies

Lol! Good luck it should sound and run great.
