Walked cam bearing (lifter ate right through it)

So I'm ordering new finished cam bearings and the Kent performance cam from turner engineer. My question is where can I find the tool to press in and remove the bearings?

Don't you have to remove the cam from the top to change those bearings because they are 1 piece instead of 2 half-pieces like the rod bearings??

For sure you will want to replace your rod bearings (easy!) from below now that you've got the oil pan off.

Here is one tool to install cam bearings. Your local auto parts chain store, O'reilly, Auto Zone or Advanced will most likely rent you one.
