I'm looking to do a 3.0 six, but need to maintain the AC from the four. Likely I'll need a different compressor and mounting scheme, but anyone BTDT?
TIA, |

QUOTE(grasshopper @ Aug 9 2006, 08:34 PM)  Awsome!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) So I am assuming the tensioner is not adjustable?? If I am using a stock 914-6 engine mount, do you have any idea how I would mount the pulleys?? The tensioner is adjustable. The 300ZX timing belt tensioner has an off center hole and a 6mm hex head hole in it. Just loosen the nut and turn it with a 6mm allen wrench. But I have found that by doing that, you can get the belt too tight. It's better to just turn the tensioner with your hand and tighten up the nut. QUOTE(grasshopper @ Aug 9 2006, 08:37 PM) BTW, how much stress does the compressor put on the valve cover studs?? Almost none. Everyone who has seen it loves the idea. The only down side is you have to put in 8mm studs in place of the 6mm ones that go through the timing cover. |
