I think my distributor drive teeth are damaged from my oil pump lockup issue.So anyways, this is what you'll need:intake gasket set, water pump/timing gasket set1. drain coolant, remove radiator2. remove distributor, lower intake manifold, valve covers3. remove rockers, pushrods, and lifters4. remove water pump and timing cover, set the timing marks dot to dot, remove cam sprocket (make sure marks don't move)5. you can use a cam removal tool, or a piece of thread rod, and carefully pull the cam straight out, make sure nothing is infront of the motor you don't want to get 50% out, then have something in the way6. use assembly lube to install new cam, install slowly and don't use forceReinstall new gaskets/bolts if needed. And re-time.Sounds so simple on paper. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
