Not normal at all. The chain flopping around when the pump snapped had to round them off.

Does anyone have a TDC flywheel locking pin? Or could make one?

This is soo ghetto. hahaha. Why do this when you can go to concours and ask todd or burger to borrow them for the weekend or such. Not like they use them at the dealer everyday.

I'll do that! Timmy, you are always pulling through!!

I will be getting the VAC harmonic dampener. I tried to order it today but they didn't have time to process my order. I called twice. Great products, phones... not so much.

Got this over the weekend.
Is anyone familiar with timing the S52 that could swing by my house and make sure I have it correct? Willing to pay $$$

Just read the last 8 pages... life seems so much simpler without those 12 extra valves haha

The headache is worth the outcome! I got a taste of the power and it is addicting. The only car that got me was that fox body 5.0 that was turbocharged and probably built. He got the jump on me and still didn't pull more than one car on me. Soon. Soon.

Finally got into the garage.
With my JB racing flywheel there is no flywheel lock hole so I just need to keep an eye on the tdc mark.
The cam locking tool that I got was a little too narrow. So I'm going to watch that with my eye too. Sketch yes. I need to get this on the road.
Got the timing set up and just need to torque down the exhaust cam bolts while there is torque on the tensioner.
Then is is all down hill from there.

Got the lower cover on and torqued down. Black RTV'd everything and used the gaskets so hopefully no leaks.
VAC damper is on but I'm waiting to torque the NEW crank bolt.
Should finish the timing in the next 48 hours.
I've been busy...
Won the Milwaukee All City Mens Softball Tournament...
And got engaged!!!

So close yet so far.
Need to get all new block to engine mount bolts and torque & loctite them properly. Along with new motor mount bolts. The "stock" condor bolts have been beyond stripped.
Out with the old... in with new!!
New water heater too. $460 labor and parts. Jose the Plumber can do everything and some! 3 month warranty on his labor, insured, hard worker.
