    valve cover bolts

    Hey guys and gals, what's up with the 16 bolts that holds the cam cover on? Mine has 6 bolts that are longer by about 4-5 mm than the other 10. Do they go into the holes that are open on the bottom?

    Never noticed this difference when I removed them.

    Some holes are deeper than others. Just swap them around until they all stick up the same length, before screwing any of them in.
