Default Skunk2 Sucks! They ripped me off! >_<

Well, not really. . . .

I ordered up my Skunk2 SOHC cam and cam gear, and both arrived today. I opened up the cam gear box and took it out of the packaging, held it up to admire it, and what do I notice? There are only five ... 5 ... bolts! There are supposed to be six but one of them wasn't in the hole and couldn't be found anywhere. I'm assuming someone forgot to screw it in before the packaging process, and it slipped by. Or is it supposed to be like that?

Will I be okay? Because that's still five screws. AEM only uses three, and HKS uses four. What do you guys think? I'm hoping my shop will be kind enough to remove a screw from one of their Skunk2 DOHC cam gears they keep in stock.

if there are six holes, then you need six bolts!

Wow, you're an idiot if you thought I was complaining. All I simply asked was if I would be okay using only five screws. Please read my original post again and tell me where you thought I was complaining.

You could get away with a missing bolt, but you should pick one up to replace it. Either give SK2 a call, or take one the existing bolts to a hardware store and try to match it up.

Damn, he said not really and did the "" I think you guys need to quit your
complaining about Daniel. I would be pissed if I ordered something from
Skunk2 and they didn't send me all of the pices. Its like buying a 1,000
peice puzzle and only getting 999 pices. Or maybe a 6 pice puzzle and only
getting 5 of them.
