Cam install
There's a time to not sweat the small stuff and there is a time when the small stuff is the whole point. IMO, if half the point of this project is to learn it only makes sense to do it right.
Despite the hundreds and hundreds of hours I've spent wrenching on my Dart, I've never done a cam swap on this or any other car...so I will be embarking on this same process soon. Keep us posted!
