I'm having a problem pulling the camshaft out of my 79 B. The head is off, the tappets and pushrods are out, the distributor and drive spindle are out as is the oil pump and it's drive shaft. The ca

Make sure two of your pistons are at top dead center. It's possible your center or rear cam journal is hitting a connecting rod. If the rods are straight up and down, there's no possible interferenc

Thanks so much for the suggestion. Unfortunately, that didn't solve the problem. Any other guesses? Larry Daniels ** Larry, Make sure two of your pistons are at top dead center. It's possible your c

I was going to write and suggest that the cam journals are hanging up on the bearings and block. If this is the case when you pull the cam you need to be 'lifting' the back of the cam as you pull. Ho

Thanks for the advice. I did refit the cam gear and was able to get the camshaft out with little effort. That provided just enough extra leverage to do the job. I still wonder exactly what was stopp
