Default Inner cam bearing

I feel like I'm beating a dead horse, but I need some reassurance. A good way to install the new inner bearing is to put it on the end of the old cam, line it up & tap it in? I want to do this all myself, and am mechanically inclined (used to be, anyway).

Make sure you install it with the numbers on the side of the bearing facing you, it is the stronger side to push against.
