Stage 8 give us the right hand cam cover.

Cut the cam cover nuts from the sprue with sprue cutters or a craft knife.  I used a No 11 scalpel blade, which is my preferred knife for modelling.  Be careful as these nuts are tiny and the carpet monster just loves to eat them!  Luckily Agora has supplied us with some extras!

I found that the holes in the cam cover were a bit too shallow, or I left the pins too long.....  I drilled out the holes with a 0.8mm drill bit in a pin vice to make them deeper, then superglued the nuts in place.

Put the cam cover on the cylinder head, then secure it from below with a couple of screws.

This completes the stage.
