New Tool from Bad Cam

Yes
You have to be real careful, use assembly lube on the journals and new bearings as you are doing the cut/fit, take it slow. Stop and clean as you go, relube and go again.

Do not recommend doing this on dry bearings and journals.

Want the cam to be able to float in there without being tight.

Will let you know how this new tool works out after I get the next cam bearing set in.

Last set cam bearings I put in I used the new cam, rotating it slowly by hand. Cleaning the tight black bearing material out as I went, relube and go again.

Took a lot of revolutions by hand cleaning and lubing as I was making progress. Did not push it in too tight, just let it slowly work in on its own until it freed up and was able to float on the new bearings.

This new tool will make it all go a lot better on the next installs.

You are spot on George!
