hi guys i bought a head from someone locally and i didnt realized the camshaft caps were not numbered like s14 sr20det head. please if anyone has a s15 sr20det engine. can someone take a pic of the head without the valve cover so i can see the order of the camshaft caps. my had the I and arrow pointing toward and i short it out like that.. it just i got two 3-7 and the exhaust side has 3-8 and 1-3 and some other shit like that.. wished they were number numerically like my s14 head smh.

My intake side all has the I marked on it .. i figured the the first and last one by the size difference and comparing it to my first and last caps on my s14 intake side.. just that the middle 3 is 3-7, 3-7, and 3-5... thats whats puzzling... now for the exhaust side it doesnt have the E... but the arrow all points down the same. the exhaust side is easier.. they are numbered 3-1, 3-2, 3-4, 3-8, 1-3 ... 1-3 is at the rear since its the biggest one of the caps. and i just put the rest in numerical order but the 3-8 is whats confusing.. i figure its probably the middle one... if anyone got information or a intact s15 head with similar numbers that would be great thanks.. ill try to post a picture of the caps in the order i think it suppose to be in.. any help would be appreciated ... also the caps where off cuz i bought the camshaft earlier from the guy and then later had to buy the head after finding out the journals on my s14 head was messed up too.. smh
