I Have The Worst Luck On This Forsaken Earth!!!!!

wanna know what i'm doing?

i'm taking apart my new motor because the POS, **** cam bolt broke off in my new comp cams 224/230.


i was just finishing the timing chain and suddenly is just kept spinning...... i wasnt even at 14 ft lbs yet and it snapped.

WTF am i gonna do?

You could just replace the camshaft itself, I'd think.

ARP bolts 0wn you! Why are you using stock cam bolts in a new motor?

Pull the cam out and use an easy out as turboz said.


PS: You do not have the worst luck, i do, believe me.
