Cam Swap pointers

1. yes..but it is a tight fit...removed the grill and had to raise the motor to get cam out of 71 Duster
2. No..it is not as long as they are not damaged...the engine has to come out to change out cam bearing.
3. Basically NO..unless you want to degree in the cam....oh no...it will hit the fan...
4. Look for anything that is excessively worn...thrust plate..fuel pump eccentric..
5. You want the engine to fire with minimal cranking.. carb...fuel..timing need to be set to fire...have a water hose to cool off radiator while breaking in cam...you need to get timing close so it is not retarded to over heat engine.
