Cam Plug
« on: September 23, 2015, 03:20:08 PM »
Would someone please tell me which cam plug to get for my 352 FE block I have bored out to 4.05. I put the Dorman 555-054 in it before with permatex and it ended up leaking. I plan on using a two part epoxy next time but I can't figure out which cam plug to use. The Pioneer EPC-92 is suppose to be 2.390" and I've got a hole of 2.375". What do you guys use. Thanks guys, Jim

You are aware that the cam plug goes in backwards from all other core plugs, right?  It is opposite of the "freeze" plugs, so when you measure the OD, make sure you are measuring the edge of the cup, not the bottom.  Joe-JDC
