i actually follow the tsrm mostly for installation of cams hehe

but when you place the cams on what i try and do is place it so that it's mostly down... so keep rotating it until its mostly in the journals and thread in the first 3 caps and bolts

are you following torquing procedure from the tsrm? i.e there are only 3 caps you initially thread down and you must torque them in passes... normally i go in 3 steps

did that help at all?
let me know if you'd like me to explain further

My main concern was the cam snapping. I've heard stories, but not with the 7M, I was still being cautious though. Cam installation went without a hitch, I was concerned for nothin

. It's just a matter of tightening them down slightly, a little bit at a time. Thanx for the input.
