2g cam cap problem

[gsx 1]

I have a problem. When I was installing my cams one of my cam caps broke in half. Is there any way of fixing this problem or am I pretty much screwed?

cam cap broke in half? yea you probably will need a new one and have it machined to fit properly, if im not mistaken if you do one you will have to do all.

Yeah bro I feel what you are going through when I bought my 420a. I had the problem one was missing from the engine being in pieces what happened and what I went through. DOnt call any mitsubishi dealer or youll have to buy a new 4g63 head. WHat you will have to do is go to a junkyard I would spend 100$ on a used head or 10 dollars on the cam bearing cap and then from there take it to a machine shop it will cost around 100 dollars for them to machine it from there any questions and you need more advice private message me.

Make sure. I repeat make sure that if you buy the one cam bearing cap separately to get that exact... exact one. do was it the front bearing cap, rear bearing cap, number 2, number 5, number 3, number 4, and make sure if you decide not to get the whole head from the junkyard to listen to this my friend. I hated that sh1t when it happened to me and it took a month to find one. but altimately your going to be spending 1500 dollars on a brand new head factory from a dealer or 200 to 300 dollars by going to the junkyard then going to the machine shop. good luck bro
