I can't go to a dealer and ask for a bolt. Anyone have a spare, or a recommendation on how to resolve this? I can't finish assembling my motor without my cams bolted down properly.

Yes, I had the head off anyways, so i just took it to the machine shop and they got it out for like 20 bucks extra. Money well spent to insure I didn't screw up my head.

Good call on rawbrokerage! Ricky got me the hookup, plus i need a new timing belt so I'm ordering both through them. Good first impression for sure! Offered me the bolt for free + shipping. I can handle that!
