    Cam button?

    Guys, I bought a roller cam from Weber and I have a quick question. My cam button is a Comp Cams and comes with 1 thick (looks like 3/8th thick at most) spacer and than the normal thin shims. Does the thick spacer go on no matter what and then the thin shims make up the difference? Thanks

    Stageright help

    I installed a stageright TB last night and I'm having an issue. Before I put the pan on I tried going through the gears to make sure it would and guess what? It won't go into first. If I use my hand from under the car it will but the shifter won't do it. Anyone have any guesses?:confused:
