If I remember correctly, there are two different size bearing journals on 235/261 cams,depending on manufacture dates(early/late) some need a bronze drivegear on the dist. some need a steel gear. Some engines can have a hydrolic lifter cam, some can only have a solid lifter cam. I don't know which one the canadian pontiac engines used. You will need to find the answer to that and get the correct cam and lifters.
There are numerous places that can help you with that, Patrick's, Tom Langdon etc.. Good luck.
