Installing a camshaft (one word) is not as easy as say, removing a handfull of bolts and putting a new exhaust on. If it's something you've never done before I'd highly reccomend having a shop do it for you.

Check out the mods forum a little further down the forums page. There are probably a few threads on cams and about 10,000 threads on CAIs.
