I need to pick up a few tools to be able to time my cams on my 6cyl. engine.
The z-block seems to be easy to find but I am having a bit of trouble finding a dial gauge. I am guessing it measures cam lift but in metric but what does it measure mm? Is there a preferred type that will function with the z-block? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wavey.gif) |

I just bought some of the newer 930 style chain tensioners, according to wayne's book he says they are the next best thing to the oil tensioners.
I think that there is to much going on with the oil ones, with something so important it should be simple, like an oil pump design (two gears). |
