I was in the middle of installing the newer style cam carriers and noticed they came with 10 star headed bolts when there are 20 studs that hold the cam carriers to the head. Do the star headed bolts only go on one side of each of the cam carriers while the studs remain for the other?

For those that want to know, Garry Kemp came to my rescue and answered my question. On the newer style cam carriers you can not get a nut and washer onto the studs on one side of each cam carrier so Lotus replaced the studs on one side of each cam carrier with star headed bolts. If I am correct the upper side of each cam carrier remains with the original stud and the lower side you replace the studs with the star headed bolts.
