Some pics from the cam swap...
Here are the tensioners and a few other pics I snapped. I am in the process of a write up, this write up is 3 pages long and I am not even done yet. Maybe I'll be finished later today.
Old cam chain tensioners (the whole reason to disassemble and swap cams)
These shoes had 39K miles on them.
Rear shoe
Front shoe
Cam plate ready to be pulled
Drain the oil first or else it will all spill out of here and make a mess once the cam plate is removed.
Empty cam chest
Reinstalling inner cam bearing with the George's tool
Cam plate reinstalled with front shoe pulled back prior to install of out gears and chain
Cam plate reinstalled prior to install out outer shoe
Outer gears reinstalled and shoe in their proper place. The georges gear locking tool helps a with the tightening of the gear bolts.
Homemade Pushrod tube holder for installing the pusrods. This worked great.

Good question. I don't really know. I had already ordered the parts and then realized I should have gotten that. D'oh!
