How much for a cam install?
How much do speed shops usaully charge for a cam swap? I know that they have to take out the radiator and a few other things but I know it can be done with the motor in the car.

It can be done with the engine in the car. They'll have to take off the intake manifold, radiator, a/c condensor, front accessories, then pull the pushrods out and take the lifters out. Do the timing cover then pull the cam out. Really it sounds bad but its kinda fun once you tear into it. Id imagine a shop getting $200+ for something like that though.
