Well more bad news a cam cap bolt broke off in the head on saturday. I was torquing it down with my torque wrench set at 15 ft. lbs and the thing just snapped. So does anyone want to help me fix it or should I just take it to the machine shop and leave it to a professional. I also would like someone to check the head to make sure I assembled the cams properly.
Thanks Steve |

Is any of the bolt above the surface of the head? If so you might be able to turn it out with a pair of plyers. With that little bit of torque (15lb) on it, I can't beleive it be stuck in there too hard.
