As it turns out, this cam bolt also works for the 1961-1963 Buick aluminum V8 (215 cubic inch) motors.
Someone must have tightened our previous cam bolt with an impact wrench, because it snapped when we tried to go to 40 ft-lbs.
However, this new ARP (SBF) cam bolt worked great!

Couldn't find this bolt anywhere until a buddy linked me to your site. Worked exactly as you said. Finally found a shop who knows about those little things that puzzle the mail order places. You have a customer for life. Thank you for saving the day.
