The only problem with #2 is it takes several hours to get out of the bedroom.....! The Dart gets negected....
 
great plan! and make sure to not forget #2 if the the cam dies within 23 minutes you can probalbly go back to wife in the bed and forget about the cam for a while;)
good luck with the cam!
 
go for it. cam will be fine!! (keeping positive, just make sure your running something like 15w-40, you prime the system, also make sure theres plenty-o-cam-lube on the lobes :D)
 
With all this talk of correct lube, bedroom times, and breaking in your cam I kinda forgot what we were talking about.....

I spent the day in the garage myself finished up the cowl on my Duster and got it primered.
My last task was to strip the paint off the cowl vent,what a pain in the butt getting the paint off all those little bars it took me about 3 hours!

There was no way I was going to skip #2. A little TLC to the wife goes a long way when something does go wrong.
I didn't get the engine started. I was being extra carefull putting this thing together and ran out of time. There is always Monday night and Tuesday night..........
One thing that did go wrong was they sent me the wrong pushrods. My MP rods worked perfect though.
