cam caps? am i screwed?


Well I was about done with my fully forged, 1200cc e85 fueled ,megasquirt powered turbo 420a project. When my garage/house was robbed. I lost all of my tools which included many snap-on, blue point, and craftsman tools, specialty tools, and power tools. I acquired enough tools to get me by and then I noticed when installing my cams that I am missing the for right cap that covers both cams, and one of the intake cam caps... I'm assuming that like most things these cam caps are head matched so you cannot use other caps without modification? Is this right? My head is ported with new crower valvetrain so ide rather not look for another head. What are my options? Does anybody have any caps that they would sell? Thanks

Find more, remove everything you can from the head and have them line honed to fit/match at a machine shop!
