Hey, guys, I need to replace the cam on my 350x ( I couldn't get the bolts loose that hold the sprocket on, so I grabbed the cam with a channel locks and chewed everything up). My question is do I need to replace anything else along with the cam or should I just put a different cam in?

the new cam should come with new bearings on it so u should be good to go, if it doesn't, get new bearings for it. other than that, inspect the rockers and u should be good to go.

if you are using channel locks when working on your engine internals you better find a good mechanic. or maybe when your putting in that high comp. piston you could hold the rod with some vise grips....
