You can push the lifters up as far as they will go then after removing oil pump the cam can be removed by removing the cap screws behind the cam gear. If you can turn the cam over there realy isnt any reason to pull it. I have refreshed ,rebuilt or whatever you want to call it and there realy isnt any reason to remove the cam. Be careful removing the oil pump as sometimes it is stuck in the boss where the two outside bolts hold it in place. There isnt a real reason to even remove the oil pump as it can be serviced still in place. Too bad other posts talk about removing lifters first just makes it hard to believe advice sometimes given on this site. Some have never did the job yet they THINK they know ho to do it.

He didn't say he was going to do that of course, but as gummy as he says it is, and having the block stripped this far, I think it would be a good idea [Reply]  [No Email]
