I guess normally if your touching the head bolts your taking the head off so need cams out anyway.... and it turned out not too bad just needed to mark the chain and tie it back so it didnt fall off at the the bottom end, pull the tensioner out to provide enough slack when we needed it and the re-alignment of cas was easy too once we realised my marking location was useless. But next time I wouldnt even mark it, there are 2 notches, and you set the engine to TDC then slide it in aligning off one, and it moves as the teeth mesh so the mark is on the second.

Despite Holden202Ts signature - way too much power already! :lol:

Needs more traction and more steering first. Launching and stopping are fine, so long as its in a straight line. Haha I can feel you thinking "drag strip" but its a circuit car. :driving:

good spot to receive gps data for race chrono pro, of course :D

That pair of cable ties have been with me for about 3 track days now. There is a slot at the back of the dash it loops through and a v shape on the front of the dash so I can slide the ties across to release the phone and slide it back with the phone in place to lock it in. Works really well.
