When I tighten the chain how would I go off on doing that??
The guy at the scooter shop said My scoot takes special parts and I cannot just use any head.

I think the guy at the school shop Meant to say that My type of scooter Cannot use just any regular scooter parts. It has to be a certain kind.

How in the hell did you do that?? Did you put it on the right way One sides says E X which goes down for the exhaust valve and or the CAM Bearing must not have been all the way in the SLOT in the head. You must of had a hard time putting on the chain. The chain when on should have some slack on the top and the bottom of the chain should not have slack. That is so the Chain Tensioner pushs down on the Guide and keeps it nice and tight.

Did the shop match up the head? Or did they just sell you WHAT THEY THOUGHT would work?

By the Way is that head a 157QMJ common head or is it a bigger head like some say that a standard 157QMJ head is not interchangable with your engine?

Get the one with the ROCKERS, the other one without the rockers looks really cheap:

I was trying to install it at night and didn't notice the cam wasn't in l the way then started to tighten the nuts when it cracked.
