Did it not come with the nuts? The thread or not going to be on them,the nuts will make the threads as you screw them on. It's like a lock nut.

you just screw the nuts onto the lil prongs.

spudz · 06-23-2008, 02:46 PM

yeah the nuts are like a little flemzy stamped steel speed nut... they will thread on there.

Bryan,

Things worked out well, I have a big show that I went to 3 weeks ago and I just had 3 days to get it running again. So I did most of it on Friday the day before the show that was in NC. So I got it going and changed the oil before I left and that Lunati runs super good. And I got best motor at the show after all that..

Thanks for asking.. Here is a before and After, the after was at the show the next day..

Congrats! Happy things turned out on the good side. I was just concerned about where the remains of the cam lobe may have ended up. Mine went south and hung around the main bearings long enough to wipe them out.
