What is the main function of cam bearings?

Cam bearings support the camshaft within the engine block. They create a low-friction surface for the camshaft to rotate on, which is essential for maintaining accurate valve timing and the overall health of the engine's valvetrain.

Why is it important to replace cam bearings during an engine rebuild?

Cam bearings wear over time, just like other engine components. Replacing them during a rebuild ensures that the new or reconditioned camshaft has a clean, smooth surface to operate within, preventing premature wear and potential engine damage.

Does this cam bearing set include all necessary hardware for installation?

This set includes the cam bearings themselves. Installation typically requires specialized tools for removal of the old bearings and installation of the new ones, along with proper lubrication and adherence to manufacturer specifications.
