Dougie,
Thanks for posting the pics of your engine build - a beautiful piece of work. I particularly like your approach to making the camshaft and setting it. Do you rely just on the Loctite for securing the 'cam sleeves' onto the shaft?

Hi Steve

Yes, the loctite is all I use. My first engine had loctite and a crosspin but I did away with the pin and havent had any problems
On occasion when I have messed up the position or orientation of a cam and have had to remove it, it takes a lot of effort and heat to set things straight
