I'm planning on installing an RPW cam I purchased used from another guy that parted out his build because he broke 2 tranny's.

Anyway, I'm trying to get all my information straight and be prepared before I go tearing out the old one and putting in the new one.

First off, what parts should I replace?

I already have:

-1 RPW Camshaft
-16 RPW springs

Am I going to need all of the stuff listed below?

-new spring retainers
-valve guides (really thinking I don't need this one)
-1 SOHC cam gear, adjustable
-spark plug seal thing...(I cannot remember the correct name)
-valve cover gasket

And, are there any cam bearings that need to be replaced?


You can use the stock spring retainers. Also you will need an adjustable cam gear to dial the cam in if you have anything other than a stage 1 (says RPW), but you can probably get away with using a stock gear. Depending on the age of your motor, you might need to replace the valve seals, but that would be have to be inspected.

The spark plug seal things comes with a valve gasket kit, and I do recommend you get that if this is the first time you are taking your valve cover off in awhile.
