    Torx WTF

    I don't believe that for a minute. I was at the dealer for 12 years before being in the tool business for 28. The tool business was always the last to know when it came to fastener tools. I remember at the Buick store when a early 78 Regal came off the transport with a broken headlight. We had...

    Torx WTF

    And most of them were Torx+ We got looking at a specific driver made for Ford box bolts and saw it was different than standard Torx. It saved us a lot of warranty.

    Snap On snapped off. They use the wrong grade of tool steel and it makes them brittle. :poke: :poke: :rofl:

    So you either buy the 68 and newer ones and modify or wait for someone to produce the 67 ones. You may have some luck finding used ones in better shape that you now have and a Wanted Ad is where you need to be. (thanks @RedBeard)

    Torx WTF

    No, that is tamper proof. Torx+ looks more like a spline. Regular Torx is more pointed. If you use a Torx on a Torx+ fastener, I can guarantee you it will strip out. 28 years in the tool business taught me that.

    did car manufacturers break in flat tappet cams?

    We like to have someone bring a nitro car to our car club event. Even them running it in the pits creates excitement. Usually it's just someone sorting out a new car (new to them) or trying for their license.

    Low voltage will do that too. I have had that issue in the spring before I charged the battery up after setting over the winter.

    did car manufacturers break in flat tappet cams?

    About the time they took ZDDP out of the oil because of catalytic converters. Yes, excess zinc, specifically in the form of ZDDP (zinc dialkyldithiophosphate), can damage a catalytic converter. While zinc is beneficial for engine lubrication, when it burns in the combustion chamber, it can...

    did car manufacturers break in flat tappet cams?

    Did the factory run the engines on a test stand before assembly. I know John Deere runs everyone on the dyno to break it in and check for leaks and issues. I know, at a car factory that would be a lot of engines to run.
