CAM BEARING BORING TOOL
Camshafts will often times not fit into newly installed cam bearings. Since most factory cam bearings are bored in place, cam bore alignment is not an issue from the factory, but becomes an issue with finish machined bearings. I use an old camshaft that I take a dye grinder to to make a boring tool. I cut 2 slots in the bearing journal. Now I can slowly hand turn and as it feeds into the block it leaves the new bearings the perfect size so a new cam can slide straight in easily.
