I was hoping that someone "in the know" could provide detail on how to do this myself. Specifically:
How can I remove the stock cam gear from the stock cam shaft without damaging either one? What tools would I need?
Regarding assembly of the stock cam gear to new camshaft:
I know that to press a new gear onto a camshaft, the center of the 1/4" keyway (in the camshaft) must be exactly 180 degrees from the pinion timing mark on the drive gear. I've been told that they make alignment pins to help with this.
I’m a little slow…..could you briefly describe how you would use these pins to get the correct alignment?
Finally, how would I press the stock cam gear onto the new V-Thunder cam shaft? What tools would I use?
Thanks. I think I can handle this given a little expert guidance!
