im trying to install my cams this weekend, and i really need the Evomoto write-up on the install. Does anyone have this saved on their computer by chance? If so maybe you can email it to me, it'd be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

 

I'd just like to see whats involved in installing them... bump!

 

found this yesterday...i hope it helps, im gonna try and do mine this weekend too. I need to pray also http://www.streetracing.org/home.php...w&id=1072&pg=2

 

wow dude ur the man! ive been searching...and searching....thanks!

 

i just want cams swap , no gears,

still needs to take gears off? or what?

 

Nope - just tie-wrap the OE gears to the belt to assure alignment tdc

 

That writeup isn't as good as the evomoto one. I'm looking for a copy of the evomoto one too. Even just the text would be nice.

When doing a cam install, would it better to remove one gear, change that cam, reinstall gear and only then remove the other gear and do the other cam?

I'm not sure why the writeups show both gears off at the same time. Seems like the belt would be less likely to jump a tooth if you only remove one gear at a time.

Comments??

 

Yes start of with the exhaust cam as it is the most difficult because you also have to remove the cam angle sensor, and its housing. One at a time.

 

Hey guys, I've got that EVOMoto cam install guide saved on my computer in pdf format if anyone wants it. Just pm me or post your email and I'll get it to ya asap. It's a good write up, so I'd be glad to pass it along to anyone that needs it.
Let me know,

badhabit90@hotmail.com please....thank you

 

Sent you a PM!

 

after watchin the turbotrix guys do it, i think they can swap cams faster than i can wash a car. but if you're slow and safe, then it'll take longer..... they'd obviously done it a time or two before

 

...I can do this install in my sleep now. It is really critical that after you install the cams, once you loosen the tension on the timing belt that you make sure your belt is timed correctly. I've seen over zealous people in the past bend valves when rotating the crank.

 

Isn't part of checking it to rotate it by hand a couple of revolutions? Are you saying that they bent valves doing the rotation by hand?

 

i just finished the install actually, and the streetracing.org instructions are worthless...i think we refered to them twice to see what size wrench we needed. There are soo many little things that it doesnt go over...Just to make sure we did this right it took us all day for the most part. Finally done, cams are great but i think i may be hitting fuel cut at WOT because i am tune-less. im gonna be flashing the ecu soon..
Anyway, use the Evomoto install guide, im sure its much better. We tried keeping good tension on the belt, but i think we skipped a tooth or so at the bottom. At first the timing was off, so when we did the hand rotation we kept hearing a "tink" when we hit valves....no good, so we had to do everything over, check TDC marks on the belt way down below the cam gears....what a b i t c h! lol Thanks to Puckadog (Rocky) for helping me out, couldn't have done it without him.
