[QUOTE="Addicted, post: 1463634, member: 24638"] After going over everything in my head yesterday evening I realized that I made a rookie cam degree mistake..and that was not locking the timing chain out..i used the tensioner as is and let it do the tension on the chain, no good! Today I set everything up like I had it yesterday, except I used a C-clamp one the chain instead of the tensioner itself, which I took it off before starting the degree process. Now that everything was looking good I went ahead and started, this time now corrected it was 115.5* ICL, that's 5.5* away from spec at 110*. Repeated the process, again 115.5*. Now time to move the Trick flow crank gear at least 6*, did just that and came out to a 110.25* ICL. I have a tad bit of play that I dont like, and thats in the crank socket that MHS puts in their Professional Degree kit. I noticed about a .5* each time I reversed direction when I'm doing timing @.050, and thats throwing it off. I would tend to think I'm actually between 109.75* and 110* ICL. Next time I will be using some feeler gauge material between the keyway for 0 play.[ATTACH=full]4478[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]4479[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
