Torque value changes as well. I have the GM part number or you can contact SDPC who has all the information. There is also a non-countersunk version available aftermarket which would be my preference.

Vettenuts i agree with you, i like the original flat faced bolts better. wonder why they went to countersinking the cam?

The VVT camshaft actuator needed the clearance.
