Just wanting to know if anyone would like to help me do a cam swap on my truck sometime within the next month or so. Let me know if you'd like to help.

Thanks, Kyle

I have a decent tool set at work, I think i would just need the valve spring tool and the dowels or pen magnets to hold up the lifters. Hell I can use the shop I work at, got a few lifts, air, etc.

Do you already know how to do it and need extra hands? I would love to learn and help, and kick it with some motor heads! Let me know!

Im sure I could do it myself, but I'd much rather have someone there who has done it a time or two to help me out so I don't screw it up. Plus it would be cool to meet some of the local guys as well!

Thats cool to have a few of you willing to help, I'll figure out a date and time soon.

Scott or Bigboy, do either of you have a valvespring compressor we could use or should I go ahead and buy one?

Thanks, Kyle
