cam help !! asap

[beans33]

I am putting my intake cam back in and after tightening all the caps down in order, the cam wont turn at all to set the timing. I did the exhaust cam the same way and its fine. If I loosen the caps up to about finger tight the intake cam will turn just fine. If anyone can help me I would appreciate it. thanks

did u use asembley lube? how hard are u trying to turn it? and is ur head off the block?

nevermind I changed out the caps from some of my other ca parts and they worked fine. The cam turns perfectly fine now. thanks

oh my god!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the caps are specific to the head, they're line bored on the head, you can't swap them about

they should be numbered and labeled I or E (intake, exhaust)

just wipe the tops and look at them, theres only one way to make them look right, start with the caps on the front(right behind the cam cogs) , then make the rest go the same way
