Does anyone have any spare cam towers available here in Houston locally?

the actual parts in your head that hold the camshaft. The cam shaft rotates in these - they are the bearings for the cam shaft. if removing your cam shaft you would take off the top part of the cam towers and the bottom part of the tower would remain attached to the head.
I hope this helps explain it.

In addition, they are a matched set because they are all line-bored at the same time, meaning the journal bearings are bored (cut) at the same time through the pieces so the cam shaft aligns perfectly. I know there have been people that use upper halves from one car and put them on another car and they report no problems. This may be the case and their engines are fine, the camshafts spin 1/2 rpm of the crank. Personally I wouldn't mix and match cam tower parts from different cars.

Cam towers are what the cams sit in. They are located on top of the cylinder head.
