The old cam was a 390/410 lift.
The Comp 268XE is a 477/480
224/230 duration at .050
110 lobe separation.

The one think I had my brother do for sure was slide out the old cam, I didn't want to risk damaging a bearing.
Adjusting the rockers is the last hard step. My brother doesn't like to do it anymore since he did it once and bent some pushrods.
