Align the crankshaft sprocket timing mark with the tab on the timing chain tensioner.
Align the camshaft sprocket timing mark with the tab on the timing chain tensioner.

Use this with the pic of the chain above. Parts I cant imagine can be over 100 but I'm not sure.Pushrods just sit on top of the lifters.

hey after leavin the water in the chambers for about 2 days, i lost about a little more than a table sppon of water, which ran down the intake size and froze at the bottom-- and 2 of the others dripped a little dont the intake side---- u think that bid enough leakage to be creating a problem???

Nah.. That shouldn't present a problem. Valves probably have some minor pitting that could be taken care of by relapping them into the head.

thats kinda what i figures-- yeah i know about valve lapping-- no problem

[bowtiebandit]
