[QUOTE="Bad Company, post: 15519815, member: 141815"] If you want this motor to survive. Replace the cam bolts with ARP bolts and torque them to 110 lb-ft with red loctite. I see Michael hasn't learned anything from my engine failure and the fact the cam bolt loosened with 5 hours and 325 miles of run time. I'm looking at your second picture of the assembled long block. Michael used the OEM 12mm cam bolts from the earlier 4V engines, instead of the much stronger aftermarket ARP bolts. The OEM bolts can't be torque above 92 lb-ft if I remember correctly as they'll stretch [/QUOTE]
