Break in red grease cam lobe
So was the cam a little snug to hand turn the cam or was there hardly any resistance? I had some resistance turning my cam by hand
**UPDATE** Do Not make my mistake. After chasing no oil pressure on a fresh 355. We pulled oil pump Melling HV55 to inspect. Nothing wrong. I told my son to check bottom of pan for maybe we forgot a rag or something. He comes up with Timing gear teeth. Pulled mains /looked good/ pulled t-cover only to find half the teeth missing on lower gear. Culprit was 2 cam galley plugs pushed out of the front of block got caught in middle of dbl roller and granaided sprocket. For the love of god please taps those cam 1/4 pipe plugs. Especially when using a HV pump. Lesson learned. Now i have to put the puzzle together and find all the teeth.
Do i need to remove the oil pump in order to remove the camshaft? Thnx
Is it hard to do a cam? I’m barley getting into truck stuff
Trying to remove cam and it’s not coming out? Does the engine need to be set at top dead center when removing?
Hey brother love the videos been watching a couple since I am swapping my cam because it went flat. My question to you is could you just swap the cam and lifters and call it a day. Or should I do a little more and replace the pump and screen aswell.
Do u have to degree the cam? Or just slip it back in? Thanks
That’s the same process to install aftermarket camshaft?
If you want to fill your lifters before hand and don't want to wait, just use an oiling can and fill them up through the oling hole on the side until it comes out the top.
Do the heads, rods, and rocker arms have to be removed in order to remove and install a camshaft ?
I read they do, but I see yours isn't, which is why I ask…
