Yeah, it must be burned into your memory by now! Maybe this will be a little incentive for you and you will get that thing done this winter/spring. Show him some progress pictures and make him jealous, Vicious.

HKS 272/272 cams have been degreed in and I should be putting this bad boy between the frame rails Saturday. For anybody wondering about how far off the 2.0L cam gears are compared to the 2.4L gears, it is about 4.5-5 deg. I dialed the cams in and then made a new alignment mark on each gear with an engraver at the adjustable timing marks. I also took a straight edge across both gears and engraved new alignment marks where the gears come close together for future timing belt replacements.

Badass!

Looks great Mike! Are you going create some form of timing cover for it or run it open? Just curious.

Looks sweet, what turbo will you be running on that thing?

I actually plan on running the timing belt & gears fully covered. With my luck something would eventually fall down in there if I left it open. Might remove the top section for car shows, maybe. I like the black 2g covers better than the new grey 1g covers I bought, but I was told the 2g covers wouldn't fit the 1g design.

I'm going to be using my VPE GT3056W (TO4E/.56trim/GT30/7cm) turbo. Should get full boost with it by 2600rpm on this engine. If I decide I need a bigger turbo I will probably get the FP3065.

Hmmm, I was pretty sure that you couldn't use either since the block moves the head up 6MM, If they were used they would probably at least need to be extended a bit I think. That was why I was asking, and because I didn't see any on there at the moment. I knew you were smart enough to run something rather than going without.
