changed all lifters. Now, the car was at TDC when I did it
Getting ready to put the bearing cover(?) back on and the cam is higher than the original height. It's not hitting the distributor? Is the valve below keeping it from going down? How do I get the cam back down, Do I just bolt it down? One of the cam lobes are hitting the lifter which is preventing it from seating
Thanks,

im in NY, since the timing belt is still on I'll manual turn the engine
So that 1 lifter is touching the lifter. Order should be from front (sprocket) to back right?

at tdc the cam should sit easily with 1st cylinder lobes facing up
just tighten down the cam caps and it will be pushed down.
NEVER MIX UP CAM CAPS, crack anything you'll need to buy a new head.
