Happy New Years!
Time for some cam bearings (actually did this last week)
These are really pretty easy to install. The window for indexing the oil passage is pretty big.
The passage is drilled along the side of the bearing bore. Like the vertical part of the letter P.
I used the Summit install tool. I would definitely recommend it. It’s less than a lot of shops charge to do the job.

You can double check the install by shining light thru the oil gallery from the main side and viewing the bearing side and also shining light thru the cam bearing oil hole and viewing it from the main side.
