So I need to remove my cams before I can get the head pressure tested. I've never done it before. Is there anything special that I need to do? Can any one give me a quick walk through?
Thanks,
Ken

remove it in a uniform fasion (kindof link loosening headbolts). the cam might break if you take of the bearing caps from one side off, before loosening the otherside (front, and rear).
