Hoping someone out there might have a junk head laying around they could sell me a cam exhast side journal cap/bridge from.
Its the part that clamps the exhaust cam in.
Thanks,Shaun

They need to me a matching set with the head, you cant swap in a different cam cap, they have to be match bored with the head.
A race shop can re-weld and line bore your existing head and caps, but costs about $250 and 2 weeks time.

I appreciate the offer. And your right, they are individually line bored. but I have seen people swap them successfully you just have to be very carful to make sure cam spins freely. Its sad that this is such a common problem. They install bearings on a crank but are too cheap to use them on there cams.
