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

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.

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.
