staxx Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 It is a big project but with the rite tools it can take 10-14 to do dealership will charge 18hours need to make sure cam is the only issue sometimes bad cam can lead to alot of other damage h-rings, valve train etc. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/27660-2001-mack-e-tech-e-7-427-bad-cam-help/#findComment-140350 Share on other sites More sharing options...

rsb502 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 The 2000,01,02 427 Etech engines were cam getters, its a common job to put a cam in em, like Staxx said check the valve train most of the time they get a valve or something else when they go, at any rate most reputable shops have probably done one before and have the stuff to do it again.
