McGeary1 Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 Is it possible to swap over the cam holders from one head to another? I was told no as the marrying faces arnt straight😳. Any info muchly appereated, cheers Quote
WallaceGlanza Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 Nope. They are line bored together so would need re-done if swapped...and then the can shaft probably wouldn't fit. Quote
McGeary1 Posted February 17, 2015 Author Posted February 17, 2015 So if you buy a head you need the cam holders and cams if possible 😳 Quote
5e colin Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 you dont buy a head or block with missing caps !!!! there for the bin Quote
McGeary1 Posted February 17, 2015 Author Posted February 17, 2015 But you buy cams without the holders Quote
5e colin Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 because the holders belong to the head you can swap them over but a cap might fail kid if it gets to tight why not use the head where you are getting the caps from ??? Quote
McGeary1 Posted February 17, 2015 Author Posted February 17, 2015 Heads cracked but has nicer holders. Think I might have snapped the cam as well. Issues Quote
5e colin Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 (edited) take a chance and torque them down accordingly and check if they are not getting to tight if it get tight on 1 swap it over to another 1 and see if it loosens up also do 1 by 1 so you see which 1 might get tight its not ideal but can be done if necessary its real cowboy builder style !!!
