Anybody know what the specs (diameter, thread pitch) for the bolt that goes into the cam are? I need to run by the hardware store and pick up a long bolt so I can pull out the cam... . I could just use the bolt that's there now to use for comparison, I s'pose, but by the time I get to it I'll be pretty dirty and not wanting to get in my Cobra to go to the hardware store .

Or you could just use that bolt to pull it out. I bought a long bolt a few weeks in advance, then when I got to pulling and installing the cam, I could not find it. So I just used the stock bolt.

It worked fine. It really comes in and out pretty easy. Just take it slow.

I'd give you the spec, but I dont have it anymore.

i used the stock bolt and timing gear to swap cams, worked pretty good, had plenty of grip

I don't remember, but I think it's a 3/8 NC. All I remember is that I didn't need to go out and buy a bolt because I think one of the accessory bracket bolts was the same thread.
