There is no modifications required with this “OEM replacement camshaft”
Break in:
To make sure that you have no issues during break-in, follow these few suggestions.
Disconnect the fuel system and spin the engine with the starter until oil pressure can be read or until oil is coming out of the rocker arms on cylinder#6
Do not let the starter run for more than 10 seconds at a time
Once oil pressure has been verified, let the engine start and run until operating temperature is achieved, then shut engine down
A hot-retorque is very important and will change the valve lash setting, so it is important to set lash last.
Adjust valves (.010″ intake/.020″ exhaust) then you are cleared to abuse your engine. Enjoy the added airflow
2-3 times a year I get calls from customers that have lash starting to get loose on the last 3 cylinders. This is caused from poor lubrication at the time of initial start-up. In this case the cam literally eats its way through the block away from the force of the tappets. Assembly lube and oil pressure on start-up are a pretty big deal to your cam. Don’t let this happen to you.
