    The cam is connected to the crank shaft via the timing chain, you will need to remove the timing chain cover, timing chain tensioner, timing chain, dizzy shaft and dizzy gear, and the cam should slide out nice and easy.

    Comes out from the top under the dizzy shaft, use a large flat head screwdriver to turn it slightly enough so it is loose then pull it out should come out easy.

    there is 270 stamped halfway (ish) along the standard cam between the lobes, confuses most people

    aftermarked cams mostly have their markings stamped in the end
