Inspection
Camshaft
1.
Inspect the cam lobes.
Using a micrometer, measure the cam lobe height.
Cam height
Intake : 39.7 - 39.9 mm (1.5630 - 1.5709 in.)
Exhaust : 37.9 - 38.1 mm(1.4921 - 1.5000 in.)

If the cam lobe height is less than standard, replace the camshaft.
2.
Inspect the camshaft journal clearance.
(1)
Clean the bearing caps and camshaft journals.
(2)
Place the camshafts on the cylinder head.
(3)
Lay a strip of plastigage across each of the camshaft journal.
(4)
Install the bearing caps.
  
Do not turn the camshaft.
(5)
Remove the bearing caps.
(6)
Measure the plastigage at its widest point.
Bearing oil clearance
Intake :
NO.1 : 0.037 - 0.065mm (0.00146 - 0.00256 in)
NO.2,3,4,5 : 0.037 - 0.067mm (0.00146 - 0.00264 in)
Exhaust:
NO.1: 0.037 - 0.065mm (0.00146 - 0.00256 in)
NO.2,3,4,5 : 0.037 - 0.067mm (0.00146 - 0.00264 in)

If the oil clearance is greater than maximum, replace the camshaft. If necessary, replace cylinder head.
(7)
Completely remove the plastigage.
(8)
Remove the camshafts.
3.
Inspect the camshaft end play.
(1)
Install the camshafts.
(2)
Using a dial indicator, measure the end play while moving the camshaft back and forth.
Camshaft end play
0.09 - 0.23 mm (0.00354 - 0.00091 in.)

If the end play is greater than maximum, replace the camshaft. If necessary, replace cylinder head.
(3)
Remove the camshafts.
