So now I have come across three people that I have heard how good a stock truck runs on a colt cam (I presume one that doesnt require valve reliefs to be cut into the pistons). Well needless to say (while I have been loosely investigating cams for a little while now) I am very intrigued at this point. Previously, I had heard it was a waste to run a cam but with hearing how good guys are claiming their trucks run with an upgraded cam, I am starting to look at these a little more serious now.
My main question is, how hard are these to install? Can they be done with the engine in the truck or shoud the engine be pulled? Also, do I have to pull the heads all the way off or can I simply just pull a rocker arm at a time off to get the push rods out and let the lifters come out the bottom? I really dont want to pull the heads if I dont have to since I have already done that when I did my head stud install.
Any info would be really appreciated.
