leemillin Posted May 1, 2014 Posted May 1, 2014 hi guys, i've just got a head but dont have the caps with it. can i use the caps out of my old one and put them in to the other one i got? Quote
Rob H@RCH Engineering Posted May 1, 2014 Posted May 1, 2014 Its not the best idea mate as there line bored to each head and may not align up properly. Quote
Rob H@RCH Engineering Posted May 4, 2014 Posted May 4, 2014 yes they are, they could work but you would need to build it up and check the oil clearances in the caps to the cam and make sure the holes all line up properly or you could end up with burnt or snapped cams! Quote
richardc9052 Posted May 4, 2014 Posted May 4, 2014 Are they numbered with sizes like the bottom end caps? Quote
Rob H@RCH Engineering Posted May 4, 2014 Posted May 4, 2014 They are numbered but Im not sure about with sizes as I try not to mix them up, there is no markings on the head I have one here with no caps on I use for mocking up on. Quote
leemillin Posted May 4, 2014 Author Posted May 4, 2014 as i have a head without caps, can someone make them up to fit? Quote
Rob H@RCH Engineering Posted May 4, 2014 Posted May 4, 2014 Try your caps on the head and see if they line up first, you may get away with it, put the caps on with out the cams in and rub your finger round the hole and make sure there is no lips where the caps meet the head. Quote
