I dont understand what you are asking. If the cam is bad the engine will still run just real bad.And running it with a bad cam could destroy the engine. Now if you mean put in a new cam,you will need new lifters and new valve springs with retainers and new valve stem seals. Also you have to "break in" a new cam, if you dont do it right it will fail within a few minutes. You need to be way more clear on what you are asking.

Will any small block camshaft work on a 305 motor?

Any cam will fit in the hole, but that's not to say that it will produce the right amount of lift and duration to suit the motor. It's also possible to put in a cam with so much lift it will cause the valves to hit the pistons.


How do you change a cam shaft?

Older engines, not overhead cam, it goes in from the front of the motor and you need to put in new bearings with the cam. Overhead cam is under the valve cover and is held in place with caps that bolt on. Take the timing belt pulley off the front, hold tension on it so that the timing doesn't jump, remove the caps and lift out the cam shaft.
