I have the XD intake cam and am finally going to do the install myself. I am encouraged by all of the successful stories I have read by other TSR members...

One question that my searches did not turn up an answer to: What is the part number for the cam journal bolts? I searched on the Hyundai Part Catalog and found bolts in the camshaft/valve section that are pn: 11404-10501

I want to be sure this is correct so I can buy a new set of 10 before I go and accidentally break one of my bolts.

 

I just did the XD cam install on my 98 Tiburon and I reused the bolts.. didn't break a single one.

 

I've installed 5 Elantra GT cams (not all on my car smile.gif ) and never broke a single bolt. They shouldn't break if torqued to the proper specs. approx 10 ft.lbs (120 in.lbs)

 

I have done 2 installs, and I have had a total of 6 bolts break.. And YES.. I have a torque wrench.. wink For 39 cents a piece, it does not hurt to change them out.. The part number I have is 22126-23001..

I also snapped a Valve cover bolt.. (I am inpatient sometimes..)

Those are P/N 11293-06283..

Have fun man!!

 

Great, thanks Choopi. You're the man! I would give you a 5 star rating, but I already did a while back wink

I ordered through Hyundai parts online and i'm going to pick 'em up tomorrow at the dealership and get this thing thrown down!

BTW, how do all of you like the the cams so far?

 

As I understand, some people have complained about loss of low end with the XD cam.

 

Isn't it supposed to add low end

 

I guess I know who I WON'T ask to help me install mine wink hehehe

 

Maybe someone needs a new torque wrench. tongue.gif

 

hey, i know it's typical to lose a little low end power with a higher degree intake cam. what happens when you install a set of both intake AND exhaust cams, at say, 240 degrees, like the YM kit cams, for example. anyone heard anything about these cams?
