I just removed my camshafts and when i reinstalled it i didn't use assembly lube. Would that cause my car to idle bad?

 

It could if the lack of lubrication on initial startup caused the bearing journals to gall.

 

did u make sure the cam gears are lined up correctly?

timing mark on the timing belt cover lines up to with crank pulley...

I have crower 402s and did valve adjustments to crower 402 specs which is .006 int. hot and .008 exh. hot... still bad idle...

 

Hmm, I think that is a big cam, so no matter what you do, you are still going to get a bad idle.

 

did you reset your ignition timing?
