If they are stock there will be holes that have been drilled into the camshafts. Aftermarket ones will be solid.

it depends on what size cams you want to put in. if your going with a 264 or the gsc S1's then you will be ok with just putting the cams in without anything else if your on a budget. If you want a 272 then its smart to upgrade the springs retainers and seats. and might as well replace the timing belt while at it

Straight edge the block and head. Check clearances or it will happen again.

Stock hollow cams (They are NOT DRILLED, jeez). You should get your head/block machined, but at the very least have it checked.
