you dont think they changed anything on the 4th gen that would make it not possible to change te cams?

honestly i dont....i think you can.... i think they thought about this when they built the car...thats y theres just enough room...but i dunno

unless they just got lucky... lol

lol, if i take a pic of my engine u think u can guess if its possible or not?

i dont think you need to... im 90% sure you can.....

k thanks, cause my uncles think its possible but i just wanted to make sure, cause if i do a change to my engine they dont really have alot of time to help me do it, so they wouldnt want to take out the engine cause they usually repair other peoples cars...

i think if anything you would have to jack up your engine to tilt it.... but i dont think thats gonna be necesscary

hey Diablo you can change the cam with the engine in the car... you will need to remove the radiator and ac/trans cooler if its an auto... i have done this a few times... i have one concern for you though, how many mile are on the car you are swapping cams in??? be sure to check the front cam bearing because a number of us lt1 guys have run into problems with high miles after a cam swap with having the cam bearing spin... the front bearing is always the one that does it so I would def. look at it very well and if you are putting a very large cam in change all the cam bearings... if you have any other questions about it fill free to ask... Todd

57808 miles are on the car, and also i sent a pm about another item, thanks

with that low of miles on the car just be sure to look at the bearings very well... PM'ed you back...

what about the bearings?

what about the bearings?
if the bearings look discolored or have markings replace them... the front bearing will more than likely brown/black colored...

where can i get the right ones from?

the same place you get your cam

does edelbrock make them?

does edelbrock make them?
anyone know?
thanks

Clevite7
summitracing.com

yea i would go with some Clevite77 like 351wstang says... they make a real nice set...

yea also 2nd that... amd no i dont think edelbrock makes them

i cant find that clevite in summitracing.com can someone post me a link
thanks

it will not let you copy past the link but go under the Engines & Components section, Bearings & Bearing Spacers, then Clevite Camshaft Bearing Sets

so besides the edelbrock cams and heads, and these bearings what else do i need?

maybe some aftermarket rocker arms?? or new lifters...

well... besides rocker arms and headers( cause they're included)

You may want to think about the impala head gaskets, they are thinner to prove more compression...

thats an idea...

so what cam you going with???

also look into getting you car tuned for the new cam... Madz28.com or PCMforLess.com both do a great job for mail order tunes... If your OBD1 and have the cable and a laptop/desktop that is outside he can email you the file to upload...

going with edelbrock heads and cam, rksport.com 1.6 compression rockers, and im not fully sure on headers but i want some long tubes with ceramic coating for under $500.
p.s. will the impala lt1 head gaskets fit? and where can i get em for how much $?

sent you a PM about some info you may want...

i sent it back to u...
