Can't Find New Cam Bearings

[tdoughboy37]

I have looked everywhere and can't find them. I am doing a 3.2 into mtx swap and want to use the cams from the 3.0 and figured I should do the bearings at the same time.
Does anyone know where to buy new cam bearings?
If not, can I use the old ones from the 3.0 heads on the 3.2? Both sets of cams are in excellent condition.
Thanks for any help I can get on this.

I am new, but I think cam bearings are welding to the heads. I could be wrong though.

There are no cam bearings on the SHO engine. They ride in journals that are molded into the head casting.

I knew it was something along those lines...

Yup, no replaceable cam bearings.

off the top of my head, i cant think of any OHC engines that have aluminium heads AND cam bearings

SWEET. Thanks for the info. This job just got little easier AND less expensive. I as getting ready to drop another $140 for new head gaskets and bolts to switch heads.....

FYI, you can reuse the head bolts with no problems.

Thanks, I have always used new head bolts when doing heads. Cheap insurance against blowin one or both. Personal preferance. Just don't want to take the chance of having to do all that work and paying for the gaskets again.
