spacer ring to the camshaft as follows:

Camshaft Bearing Installation
Tools Required
• J 6098-01 Camshaft Bearing Installer
IMPORTANT:
• A loose camshaft bearing may be caused by an
enlarged, out of round or damaged engine block
bearing bore.
• The outer front and rear camshaft bearings must be
installed first. These bearings serve as guides for the
tool pilot and help center the inner bearings during
the installation process.
• The camshaft bearing oil holes must align with the oil
galleys in the engine block. An improperly aligned
camshaft bearing oil galley hole will restrict oil flow to
the bearing and camshaft journal.
1. Use the J 6098-01 in order to install the front and
rear camshaft bearings:
(1) Assemble the bearing tool to the driver handle.
(2) Align the oil holes.
(3) Drive the front and the rear camshaft bearings
inward toward the center of the engine block.
