[Roadsters] Cam bolt

[Pete]

bYup...different: 3/8-16 vs M10-1.5

Forget which does what, but one will thread in (not tightly), the other will
only go in a thread or two before jamming.

However, other than the thread of the cam timing gear bolt, there doesn't
appear to be any other SAE vs Metric differences. The cam bearings are
identical.B 

That all said, I think it would be highly unusual to find the wrong bolt used
unless the rebuild had been done by someone with a mix of parts laying
around.

I also know that there are SAE and metric cams and the bolts are different.
Would a SAE bolt thread into a metric cam and vice versa?b
