Intake cam sprocket pin split, seizing the sprocket in a position that was slightly off. I should be able to change the cam and sprocket and the car should start right up.

I'm wondering the same thing. Maybe it happened when someone tried to force it out during uninstall

Another "hammer mechanic's" dirty deed!

Those were the original cams that were on the block that threw a rod. I’m think mid high rev engine locked up and broke the pin. And I’ve also read oil starvation from a dirty vtec screen. But I’m glad I found it. Just got cams in and now I’m running into a different issue. Where the #1 cam cap just snapped. if anyone has any clue on how to deal with this without changing the head on my newly built engine that would be great
