    WOW I had no idea cams were that involved lol. Here i was thinking I might buy some later on and just install them myself in my garage lol. Sounds like an impossibility.

    according to other posters, the engine needs to be removed to do it properly.

    correct shop time for cam install is 20 hours labor, then another 250 to swap out springs. I paid 1500 to do mine plus 250 to swap springs out. The reason the cost is so high is cause they tech pull your motor. In reality a shop will not pull your motor they will use the tool. I know on a 3v my friend just got cams done at a shop last summer and it was 800 them using the tool, plus 300 for spring swap.
    oh yea add 500 for a tune also to both prices
