To remove the inner cam bearings use a blind bearing puller. Install new bearings using the old cams and tap them in with a rubber mallet. Tap gently, they will slide in easy. There's a small lip on the inside of the case which you don't want to break off.
Oil Pump: btw - this is also how Fueling recommends installing their high performance pumps.
First the cam plate must be installed centered and torqued to spec. Put the plate in and install all the bolts hand tight then loosen 1/4 to 1/2 turn. Then lift rear of the bike up and put in 5th or 6th gear depending on year of bike, plugs removed. Rotate the rear wheel to turn motor while tightening the cam plate per the service manual. This centers the plate.
Now install all 4 oil pump bolts, very lightly seat them, then rotate the motor using the rear wheel, trans in 5th or 6th, spark plugs out, rotate the rear wheel 2 or 3 times, snug bolts a little more, turn the wheel 2 or 3 more times, tighten more, turn more, tighten more, until you get to final torque on the oil pump/cam plate.
Dont forget to use assy lube on bearings and pump.
I prefer using the stock push rods. More work although no second guessing about proper adjustments, loosening... and it costs less.
