Cam Towers

Question, concerning the cam towers, three or four bearing support, do they have cam bearings?

No. The cams run in the aluminum housing and are lubed by holes in the bearing area.

Good morning, you say bearing are? is there a bearing install in the cam housing?

I'm just calling the holes in the cam towers that the cam runs in a "bearing area". They just run in the aluminum itself.
