installing oem roller cam in 010 block

Those cams are meant to be run with a cam plate that sets the cam endplay . The 010 block does not have the provision for that plate . You need measure to see what the dimension is from the cover gasket surface to the surface the cam sprocket runs against . Then compare that dimension with a roller cam block . The Cam sprocket thrust surfaces have different dimensions on the OE roller cam sprocket to deal with that cam plate that you don't have . Once you figure out all these dimensions , you will be able to figure out what combinations of shims or thrust bearing , will work along with a thrust button .
