change engine or cam????
guys,
what do you think will be less work,
change the cam, or change the engine,
i've got a 350 with new cam in my camaro,
was thinking of just taking the engine out and sticking it in the vette instead of fitting a new cam in the vette engine,
to me, and off past experience, it's probably easier swapping the engines,
it will probably take less time,
what y'all think???

Only you would know neil. Engine(s) condition and assesories to move would determine how fast and how much to replace for either cam or engine. :lol:

Re: change engine or cam???? (camaroneil)
are you pulling and swapping both motors or is one already out?? pulling two would take more time than a cam swap and you'd be two cars down for a day or two. but indexing a cam takes time to do it right, and it's a whole lot easier on an engine stand. Brian

Re: change engine or cam???? (marshrat99)
thanks guys,
think i'll change the engine,
i have no emissions at all on the car now,
so theres only a couple of bolts to undo and a few pipes !!!!!!!!
so it shouldn't take long,
the other engine is out and ready to go in,
