Ok so building my SR20. I've searched and can't seem to find exactly what I'm looking for. Finally to the point installing my cams. I'm going through the torque sequence but I snapped the number 7 bolt on the exhaust side. I think I may have had the bolt in the wrong location. I have 3 different lengths of cam cap bolts, all 10mm though correct me if I'm wrong? Where do the longest bolts go?
