Okay, so I tried tightening the nuts on the top of my vc one day to try and stop the grommets from leaking (which I will instead be replacing). I noticed that one of the nuts would do nothing but spin, so I decided to take the vc off and take a look. Wouldn't you know, the threads were stripped in the cam journal where the vc stud screws down in.:no: What I need now is a heli-coil, but even Son's Acura couldn't help me with the size. Has anyone here had to do this? I need the size for the hole in the cam journal. :( Here's a pic showing which one it is (not my head):
