132084, quick timing sanity check
Posted by streetlightning, Oct-26-10 11:21 PM
just re did the timing : why: hyrdo tensioner with 3k gave out on me

replaced: Belt, idler pully and added mech pulley.

Re torqued Cam gears 73ft lbs
idler and mech tens bracket to 22 lbs
heres pix of it time, crank and tang on tensioner look good/correct? if so ima lock them down and try a few revs and verify.





did it with engine in, so i had to use my ph to verify tang position lol

Looks fine.

I think we need a pic of the cam gear marks though...

They r aftermarket findanzas, i didnt 0 them with an oem gear b.c well i didnt have one. And last time we were getting close to running of adjustablity trying to 0 them, so i 0d them to the marks on the gear and went by dowels being face up amd 90 degrees perp to head surface . That would make intake pin down and exhaust pin up.
