| ok so me and my buddy are putting together a set of tt heads and ........ (this is where the story turns to a tragedy)...... we are putting the e2 cam journal on the left head on the intake side and he says he cant find the torque specs in the fsm i think it is 9.8-12 and he seems to think thats way to low and i take his word on it since he had just finished putting together our other two ka heads which use a real similar cam journal he claims the ka torque spec is 16-19 so we start torquing away and every goes grea then come to find out he labeled the cams backwards which i knew in the first place but once again he didnt want to listen lol so we take them back apart and replace everything and and now we are at the last cam journal e2 on the intake side of the left head i torque one bolt to 12 then the other to 12 and then to 19 and the other to 19..........pow ...(pants are shat)...... recoup yourself and fear the worst...... 2 min of no one saying anything or moving .... finally i get the nerve to remove it the m-f-er snaped all the way through to the thread the dam thread was holding the bolt together other wise it would have broken off in the head and to shop to get the welder and 12 hours later we would have been done lol but thank the nissan gods the thread didnt break long story short torque specs are 9.8-12 :) and i need a new cam journal bolt lol where can i get one of those and where can i pick up a set of spring shims (the things that sit under the valve springs that bring it up to the correct height) oh and btw the torque specs are in the fsm he just didnt look very hard and i still need to know where i can get a multiple tune switcher module thanks
