I've installed one cam already but it did not require replacing the springs etc. This time around I've got to do the whole deal. No one seems to know if the valve depressor tool is required (ABA Scirocco says "no" on hydraulic valve trains). Also, my mechanic has a standard leak-down tester. Will this provide enough pressure in the cylinder to keep the valves from falling into the head? He said 80psi was no problem. Help me out everyone, I'm getting tired of using this cam for a paperweight. By the way, I'm OBD2.

well for cam and cam gear installation go to www.autotech.com and go to the section TECH and then instructions ... for valve springs get a bentley or haynes
