Cam plate retainer and tfs adapter Ok. I’m installing my cam got the retainer plate and the trick flow damper plate. Instead of using the supplied bolts can I use my factory hex heads? They are same length.

I used the button head allen bolts that came with the TFS damper plate, it was strange, neither metric or standard allen keys fit well and I ended up rounding it out when I torqued it down. I would definitely go with hex bolts next time if there is enough clearance.

I just got a new cam plate also that came with the torx bolts. I have my oem bolts, should i just reuse the oe bolts and torque to spec.I dont want to run into an issue where I need to try to extract another bolt for the block.
