JUN 264's. I am building the much debated-hated 2.1L I think I know what caused most of the problems in the build ups of other 2.1's and I feel I can improvise, adapt and overcome. You should see the rest of the pile of parts sitting behind the cams.....

althemean, did this shaft go out following a clutch install (or any other task requiring shaft removal)? Just wondering because it was a major job trying to get that thing back in on mine.
