You are going to need a new flash since it is not the same motor nor even the same mods.

For the first time i decided to install the cam locks which is what holds the cams in place inside the head.They are labeled E1-E5 which I know is exhaust and the I also have another 6 which are labeled I1-I5 which is Intake.



My problem is when I started to install them starting from the side with the cam gears which is where number 1 would go on each side and kept working my down the line in that order.When they were all installed the cams would not rotate.Also keep in mind I don't have the valves and everything else installed yet only the cams so they should spin freely or atleast spin with little effort.



Here is what I think and was told by a few mechanics.
They said it is little chance that i would work because the cam locks were not the original ones that came with that exact head.And that if they were to work i would be cer lucky.So the only solution is to get them line bored for my specific head.



Question.
Is the above theory true or false?



Here is what I did.
I went through everyone of them one by one on each installation point (which took me a few hours) and on the intake side most of the the ones marked "E" were usable only one on the intake side I could not find any of the cam locks to fit.On the exhaust cam I could not get any of the locks to work.



I hope I made this clear so that you guys could understand if someone could shed some light on this i'll really apprecaite it.

yeah I did but I am going to do it again since I feel the clutch does not have full pressure.

I also noticed that the wire for the clutch sensor is disconnected so I can now start the car without pressing the clutch would that have anything to doe with it?
