I've seen a number of you 6 guys cut a hole in the rear firewall for reaching the engine for timing. Is this necessary? not necessary but nice? not needed? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Doing the rustoration on my teener right now and the 6 is forthcoming. Now would be the time to do it.

If so, there is no adjustable timing. However, an access panel in the firewall would be a good thing if your belt were to ever break. Replacement of the belt in the car would be a nightmare. I would probably drop my engine to do it. I never have cut a hole for the access plate. I change the belt every time I have the engine out regardless of condition. just my humble opinions. |
