Did the job
Once installed felt loose so I wasn’t sure if it was holding the lifters but I swapped the cam and didn’t have any issues. Did the job!

Makes changing a cam easier than putting butter on bread.
Fits and holds very well, little pricey.

Check tapped section for metal fragments. Handle may not screw down all the way
A little pricey for a tool you won't use much but it sure beats the wood dowel method.

Save time and just get them ahead of job
I literally tried using quarter inch extensions before these came in because I was in patient but I was at work so well and these worked perfectly

Too thick to fit driver side, just buy straight metal brake line instead.
Bought these to replace the cam in a 2011 Silverado 5.3. Passenger side went right in. Driver side would not. Dowel was too thick and would not go in. I ended up buying a straight piece of brake line a little bit thinner and works much better and much cheaper. Not worth the money.
