damn wtf!

Just when I think I'm done
Just installed some 240/248 cams on 14 today.
Did everything proper or so I think.
All my markings lined up and everything.
So when I go and turn the engine manually by hand I feel some binding on my breaker bar.
I took out the spark plugs just to make sure it wasn't some good ol compression.
So my valves are touching the piston.
What should I go back on and double check?
Thank you for your input!

-I already double checked the torque on the cam caps

If you're valves hit the piston you need to take the cams back out and reinstall them.


WIth that said, keep your fingers crossed that you didn't bend a valve too....
