I got a haynes manual to help me out. trying to put the heads on. But I can not figure out the timing part. Cant find any bright links in the chains. From what the book says you have to have some special tools to get it right. Any input would help thanks.

This link might help you with installing the timing chains.

Does anybody know where I can borrow the special tool I need to time the cams. I dont really want to have to buy them just to use them this one time.
I tryed advanced and auto zone. Neither had them.

You don't need to time them on a silver truck.....it's just on the other colors!

Mike · 06-22-2008, 05:50 PM

I left my set at Mitch's house. What would be the easiest way for you to get it? ship it? ...or meet at dorchester?

you can meet me on my way through savannah on wednesday.

I'm normally there between 5-7.

There is a little dead end road off of ogeechee road, near the ogeechee road/chatham pkwy intersection. I think there is a zaxby's & subway on the corner. That's the best place for me to drop it off too you.

Let me know

lol....I doubt I'll be coming back through anytime soon. They just gave a ~30% raise for the job I'm on. Now all the guys with 30 years seniority will be coming back to it, and I will no longer have enough seniority to work it.

You can just get it back to me or Mitch next time you come to dorchester,

wade w · 06-23-2008, 09:27 PM

By the way Mike that link helped a lot. Made me think to check to make sure all of the plugs were in it. found 3 missing. Guess the guy needed them for his new heads. Thanks again.

I'm faily sure you know it, but I was only kidding about dropping the tool from the bridge to give it back.

Mike · 06-23-2008, 09:28 PM

Just to make sure.....this is the tool that I have.
