OK, for those of you who don't remember, I exploded a piston a few weeks ago (http://www.home.turbopower.com/~mikew/Spitfire/69Spit_4.htm). I finally tore everything down and brought the block in to be hot tanked, magnafluxed and mic'd. The one thing I forgot about was the cam bearings. The machine shop removed the old ones so I'll have to put new ones in. Is that something that a person of reasonable mechanical aptitude can do, or is it something that requires special tools (i.e. have the shop do it). On a somewhat related note, anyone happen to know when the Spitfire went unleaded? If the old head is damaged (it's being magnafluxed now) I'd just as soon get a 1500 head that already has the unleaded valves.
