It looks like Zzebes(was gonna install my cam) had some work stuff pop up unexpectedly last night, and is in San Antonio right now. I tried talking to him some this morning, but he was still working on something.
I'm starting to think it might be easier just to sell this damn cam. It's not even in the truck yet and its already caused me plenty of headaches.

Put it in yourself, its not a big deal. SilveradoL33 and I have done 5 or 6 and the most probs we have had is his little brother dropping the valve stem locks I asked him to hold.

I havent done it, so Im no means an expert, but after looking through the camshaft swap write up Id be pretty comfortable doing it myself, so I think you could do it. Whats the numbers on the cam anyway?

I had tyler install mine and it was a piece of cake. My biggest concern was one of the dow rods moving and dropping a lifter.
He got a few pics of the install.
If I was walking I'd be 100% confident in swapping them out when i got bored with em.
Helpful tools are an air tool to pressurize the cylinder chamber. Dual Valve spring compressor, and a harmonic balancer install tool. Mine kept wanting to go crooked so we had to borrow the tool.
