Exhaust Cam Gear

[redline5.0]

Well everything was going smoke on my comp cam install until it came time to put in the limiters on the exhaust side. Got everything back together and started torquing the bolts on the phaser/exhaust gear and ended up breaking a bolt. I guess my new digital torque wrench is a real pile of shit because even at 40lb-in it didn't click. Got the old mechanical torque wrench from harbor freight and they were way to freaking tight.

I don't suppose anyone has a exhaust gear and the 6 bolts laying around or even the whol vct/phaser assembly I don't car as long as its the exhaust one.

I don't, but if you just broke a bolt why do you need a whole new assembly? Just extract the broken bolt and buy a couple new ones?

You can overnight stuff from Ford DIRT cheap. Some 10% of their cost is the overnight shipping rate. I overnight EVERYTHING lol

I'm going to see if a machine shop can extract the bolt and just buy new bolts.

I've had my machine shop extract bolts just like that, should be no problem. The bolts are also dirt cheap.
