As stupid as this sounds, I have extra bolts after assembling my head!


The 2 smaller screws look like they MIGHT fit the inner timing cover? The other 2 I'm not sure about. They are NOT for the plug wire cover. Those 4 bolts are already installed and are longer. I can't find these bolts anywhere on these 2 diagrams either! Do these look familiar to anyone?

 

Can u get a clearer picture? The 2 on the right definitely look like #20 to me.

Also, by chance did u receive the head and its parts already disassembled?

Edit: negative on the clearer picture, my screen at work sucked..at home i can see them perfectly, lol.

#19 is a head bolt, lol.

Now that i can see the picture clearer, the 2 on the left dont even look like they're from a B16 head. I dont recall ever seeing those. They look like they may be from a sohc.

 

lol..19 is a head bolt!

the ones to the left are from the cam cap..and don't actually have to be removed for disassembly.

 

everything on the cam caps have been assembled. yes, i did receive the head unassembled from a friend. sorry for the crappy pic, i took it with my phone.

both pairs of bolts are threaded on each end. i tried the 2 smaller bolts in the holes where the inner timing cover goes (though i'm not sure i'll even be able to use it because the lower lip doesn't line up with the b20 block) and they fit, but i'm not positive that they go there. the 2 longer bolts do indeed look like they should be for the valve cover, but i already installed the 4 bolts that go there. those bolts have a shorter base and a longer head. maybe you guys are right and these don't belong to this head

 

There are more than 4 bolts that hold on the valve cover, in fact there are 8. 4 on the outer corners, and 4 inner ones that are integrated as cap cap and cover bolts.

yeah but those are already on there. and they don't look like those bolts

 

It also looks like the 2 on the left are upside down. Look at which side u can fit a socket on. Im tellin ya, i dont think they're from this head, lol.
