hint--when tighening a cam down, don't start in the middle and tighten that down all the way and then move outwards. Tighten in stages among the various bearing things. I just snapped my A cam...and am none the pleased. I guess it makes sense that it would break, but it didn't occur to me at the time. I guess it's back to dumb M cam land.....grrr...too much pressure from the pushed-down valves and POP! the thing snapped. I can't believe it really...I guess I wasn't meant to have more power...
