Can't get bolts out from cam pulleys...

Cool, you can be be close on the cams and it will run. It may lope a little at idle if the front and rear banks are different...but if they aren't they it should be pretty smooth within a few degrees either way.

yea, it's been REALLY smooth. the idle settled to 1000 and she screams to eighty in second. i've always been enamored with the 3.4, but i never knew what a great platform the w-body was. i am more than pleased.

cam bolts

Try this it's some thing I've had to do a couple times on my GTP, works great. Place a deep socket (a cheap one you don't mind hurting) on the bolt and take an oxy/acetylene torch stick the flame down in the socket, this will concentrate the heat on that bolt, keep it there for 30 seconds or so (the heat penitration should only be to the bolt). Then bust it loose it should come no problem. But... wait a few minutes before you turn that cam, actually install the hold down tool just to be safe. Just incase there was any signifigant heat expansion on the cam, You don't want to score the cam journel its only aluminum with about 2 thou clearance.

P.S. This will work on any bolt where you don't want to burn the surrounding area.
