1/4-20 Torx Bolt - for Cam Retainer Plate SBC

The 1/4-20 Torx Bolt for Cam Retainer Plate SBC is a precision fastener designed for small-block Chevy engine builds. This bolt secures the cam retainer plate assembly, a critical component that locks the camshaft in the proper axial position and prevents unwanted movement during high-RPM operation. It is suitable for various applications, including rebuilding classic engines and assembling modern crate engine platforms.

Manufactured to meet OEM specifications, the 1/4-20 Torx bolt features a six-point Torx head design that resists cam-out and provides superior grip compared to conventional drives. The 1/4-20 thread specification (1/4-inch diameter, 20 threads per inch) delivers optimal clamp load for retainer plate applications without over-torquing soft aluminum or cast-iron block bosses. Its lightweight design, at 0.02 lbs, integrates seamlessly into your engine assembly.

Small-block Chevy builders, from street rod enthusiasts to performance shops, rely on quality fasteners to maintain reliability and torque specifications. This bolt is compatible with various SBC engine variants, including 262, 283, 302, 327, 350, and 400. When installing, it is essential to follow factory torque specifications for optimal performance.
