Putting camshaft caps back on
Hey, I was installing my camshafts and the caps were being a pain in the ass. I tried tightening a few down and I broke 2 bolts, let me know of any tricks to do this. It's on a B16a2. Stock camshafts aswell. Let me know guys.

Re: Putting camshaft caps back on
what was the problem?.....did you put the caps back in the correct spot and on the correct way with the dowel pins lining up,you torque them in the correct sequence?.the damn caps only require like 20ft lbs torque, and the 10mm ones are only like 8ft lbs?. could you have possibly overtorqued....
