For me the longest was the SAI system to get done, because it requires 3 start cycles if I remember correctly and the engine has to cool down between the cycles, so it took 3 days to get that ready.
Your assumption is that the I/M Readiness will clear because all the necessary sensors are online and reading acceptable data; but in this case, he is trying NOT to do the camshaft related repair, and still getting by. If the repairs are not made, the system will never clear, even if you drive it to the moon and back.
