Please tell me this is a joke. You can't run mild grade hardware in place of camshaft cap bolts.

I would personally never replace any internal engine hardware with a bolt that isn't application specific. Your engine your call though!

I agree with what you are saying! I wouldnt have bought them if the owner of the only bolt store here that had bolts that worked didnt tell me that these bolts are made for engine wear and tare. Besides I got to thinking after I bought the bolts that ill only replace the ones that snapped. So the picture I posted is misleading...

Hope it works out, make sure you tighten the cams in the correct factory sequence!

Dude you should NOT use those bolts to hold your cam caps. They are Fully Threaded. Stock ones are NOT and there is good reason for them not being fully threaded.

The shank (non threaded portion) of the stock bolt is bigger in diamater then the threaded portion, so that the fit in the cap is tight. Your Fully threaded bolts will leave a gap, which will inturn make it impossible to achieve the fully required clamping load of the caps. Furthermore the threads can act as a slow speed mill and eventually distort the holes in the caps.
