Mechanic is doing this more precise stuff, which also requires kit I don't have.

Replace your mechanic. Replacing camshaft is not a big job. The important thing is to tie down the timing chain with the camshaft sprocket to lock down the timing. Check the lifters. On a scale of 1-10. It is a 4 IMHO.
