M156 Cam Journal Cap order.
M156 Cam Journal Cap order.
I am repairing an M156 which was previously repaired by someone with insufficient skill and knowledge.
All of the cam journal caps were installed out of order. Some were 180 degrees out and some bolts were finger tight. The end result was a broken camshaft. Fortunately, I don't see any other damage but I would like to install the caps in there proper positions and measure the journal bore before I reassemble the top end of the engine.
The cam journal caps are marked 1 through 8 and then the are markings that say 98 and 98. Does anyone know the proper placement/order of the caps.
Thank you for the help.
If you can’t get a reply here, maybe someone like 63 Motorsports could help. But you’re definitely on the right track…definitely shouldn’t mix caps, whether it’s cam, rod, or main…
