With the engine installed and radiator the cam will not come all the way out.I only pulled it forward to the second bearing jurnal..What it needs is a solid shaft installed and a wack w/a hammer. When I used to install new brass bushings in track rollers the new pin was allways tight.A perpendicular smack on the exposed end of the shaft with a sledge hammer and everything was free,the bushings were all in line.The Cam is not dripping with goo I took the cam and gear set to the machinist.I later could only drool some assy lube through the lifter holes (over a year ago).The purple stuff was so thick I couldn't squirt it through an oil can.And most of the purple stuff ran at the lifter low edge and missed the cam.now i have to find the Cam card.I know I saved it and the recamendations for advance or retard..But I have to find that.A larger garage and a system would help.
