I am having some problems

Well i changed out the cam and have the new one back in, but i cannt get the harmonic balancer on. I went and got the install kit but the bolts are to small. Any thoughts? <img src="images/icons/confused.gif" border="0">

I believe you have to have a special tool.

Re: I am having some problems

Use your old bolt to "push" it back on. Make sure that the crank snout is clean and lubed lightly with clean oil. Same for balancer. Tighten bolt to ~250 ft/lbs. Buy a new bolt, torque to 37#'s and then tighten another 140°.
