I just finished installing cams in a '94 se-r. When I tightened the cam
bearing caps passed 5 lbs/ft the cams would not rotate at all without using
excessive force. So I left them tightened at about 3-4 lbs/ft. Does anyone
know if the cams should be that hard to turn when the bearing caps are
torqued properly (6-8 lbs/ft)? By the way, the cams I took out would rotate
pretty easily. The car runs good now, but I am scared to drive it hard
until I know for sure.
To answer another topic I saw on here- I dropped the chain a few times and
it never came off the crank sprokets- maybe I was just lucky.
Thanks,
Chris
