Get a thread file with the correct threads per inch and carefully clean up the
damage. If the threads are crushed axially from dropping the cam on its end
this may not work but a cold chisel mark should clean up.

The threads on the crank and cam ends are munged up.  The previous
e-builder and his damn cold chisel.
he crank nut will just get started but the cam nut won't even do that. I
ought new nuts and it didn't get any better. I can see the bad spots, but
 don't have a die or thread chaser near big enough for these and I don't
ant to force them for fear of just making things worse.
o I have to buy dies for this?  If so what size.
ther suggestions?
hanks,
ike Tobin
