[DeTomaso] Cam removal in car

[Henrik Svensson]

Hi Dan

I have not done this myself but the previous owner did it without even removing the oil pan. I found big parts of a broken thrust plate in the pan when I rebuild my engine.

Changing the cam with the engine in should not be a problem. My guess is that you can even get the old bearings out if you need that.

Ämne: [DeTomaso] Cam removal in car

I'm debating between yanking the engine again, or trying to get away with dropping the pan and changing the cam with the engine in (assuming the bearings are OK).
Has anyone tried changing the cam with the engine in?

Dan
