Yes, and you can point them to the site www.professionallymadeturbo.com to prove it was professionally installed and you know what you are doing.

Re: Trance's all motor disaster

If this is a common occurance to Zex Cam ( I've Heard of it before too) I would tend to think the threaded hole is no deep enough, and then when torqued down, the bolt bottoms out and causes it to crack.

I've had this on my old motor. Not on the cam, but I used too long of a bolt and it split the aluminum boss right off.

Re: Trance's all motor disaster

well he's not in Ca anyways. I'd call them up and see what they can do. Maybe they can compensate you a new came gear too.

Yay... I'll stay away from zex.

Re: Trance's all motor disaster

Thanks alot guy's, and thank you Mista bone for the contact info. I'll get in touch with him. Thankfully I was idling on a hill so I just had to roll back down. But, I towed it home 3 miles with a rope, haha The homemade way!
