cambelt set


I prefer instead of gm kit.. have the necessary markings .. and following the guides from here (I have the cambelt dvd files)
it was a perfect fit at the first trial..tensions correct, positions correct..

I found the 3.0 inlet cams from the breakers (only one pair)  .. and guess what, they were fractured..

an idiot hammered them   

so I give up


anyway engine is ok now.. much better than before as heads are polished.. tomorrow will start the manual conversion..

bad luck Cem
never mind it runs good now, it will seem faster with the manual box anyway!!!

the only downside is I used some credit and need to pay back..     where is the nearest bank to rob

[cem_devecioglu]

here are the pictures from auto to maual conversion..

I'll be glad if anyone on here uses the pictures to explain anything or for any circumstance.. I'm not that pro to explain necessary steps in detail..(although I witnessed all steps and done some myself (little )
