ST, cam sprokets are usually @ 12 ft/lbs w/ blue or red locktite, give them a call, and be sure. as a worthless asside, cams are hard, true, and brittle. I once broke the sprocket mount tab on a brand new cam thinking it was in place wilst torguing. G

I just went through this process (CAM Degreeing)...
11-12 ft lbs is the spec...

My WebCam camshafts came with their own brand lock-tite. In speaking with others, BLUE lock-tite was the recommendation due to after new cam chain stretching I'll want to go back and re-adjust for lobe centering adjustments...
