save time and frustration during the installation.

dial indicator, start by screwing

the adapter piece to the bottom of

the dial indicator stand.

4) Install the assembled stand with

the metric adapter and dial

Camshaft Degreeing Instructions 1. The camshafts and timing chains have been installed. Make sure that the timing marks on both the camgears and crank gear are aligned properly per the cam installation instructions. 2. Your dial indicator and stand should already be installed and ready from the initial setup. 3. Attach the included pointer to the block. Many people will make a pointer out of some sort of rigid, yet manageable wire. A stiff metal coat hanger wire works well. 4.

8. Position the dial indicator mount so the tip will contact the retainer of the intake valve. It is important that the indicator plunger be parallel to the valve stem. Any variance in the angle of the indicator will introduce geometric errors into the lift readings. Begin with the intake cam on Cylinder 1. 9. Rotate the engine in the normal direction of rotation until you reach maximum lift. The dial indicator will change direction at the point of maximum lift. At this point, set the dial to zero.

14. Now move the dial indicator to the Exhaust cam and repeat steps 8 through 13. When completed with both cams on Cylinder 1, reposition the dial indicator on the Intake Cam of Cylinder 6 repeating steps 8 through 13 for the intake and exhaust cams. In the event that your camshafts did not degree in as per the manufacturer’s specs, it will be necessary to either advance (move the cam ahead) or retard (move the cam back) the cam to meet the suggested intake centerline.
