LOL not sure how you came to the conclusion that I have removed everything
I haven't removed anything, the only thing that is removed is the chain cover.

thanks for the information I understand what you're saying.

My bad thought your were the guy doing heads also. Put the cover back on and use the above advice to find TDC before you play with he chain.

here is the new install.




got a torque wrench but it's ****... it says I'm supposed to hear one click and I hear nothing at all, the cam bolt has to be installed at 42.5 and I just hear nothing so no clue if it's bolted right...

what happens if it's bolted at 30 or 60 ?

bluebeastsrt

Nothing most likely. As long as it's snugged up odds are it'll be fine but I'd get a better torque wrench and do it right if it was me.

lol yeah I figured out how to listen to the damn wrench it's worse than my wife you have to pay attention and FEEL the TOC in the handle
anyways got my chain installed with proper torque.
tomorrow I'm starting to slowly put things back.

- new FR chain kit
- new FR harmonic
- reuse chain cover
- new FR water pump
- new bbk underdrive pullies
- new 3G alt 130 AMP, I already did the support cutting and painting so it will fit with the wiring job
- new mishimoto thermostat
- new mishimoto rad
- new mishimoto electic fan

that will be it for this summer. I plan on enjoying the car a bit before the winter starts

between work, wife, 2 kids and house not enough time to work on the car so we do what we can to accommodate everyone lol

I'll send a picture of it when done.

I hope you were very care full not to drop any of that old gasket material into the oil sump. Before you button it all back up take the extra time to inspect the inside of the pan , the last thing you want is a piece of gasket plugging up your oil screen. Also an oil change will be necessary to insure that no coolant leaked into there.

robotnix

nothing leaked in there the coolant holes I had them closed. same with the oil pan , a tiny peace of paper gasket went in and I took it out with a spoon.
thanks for the heads up.
