hey guys. last night i installed a set of hks 272s on my car. everything went good. car runs normal and all but today while i was sitting i noticed that my ac wasnt blowing cold air anymore so i looked at the temp guage and it was just about at the 'H'. there is NO leaks at all and the only thing i can reallly think of is maybe its the cams i just put in?... it was 106 out today and the car is NOT tuned yet. but i have not been gettin on it at all.
has anyone else had this problem or know whats goin on?..
(yes i checked for leaks and vac. hoses that came off. cant figure it out.)

^^ not sure about this one.. if it was overlap (im guessing you're referring to the cam design itself) wouldnt anyone with identical hks cams have the same issue???
and damn here, someone throws a suggestion and this is the response? 
Ive had a over heating problem also. Best thing I think check in the fuse block under the hood and check the relays. There are three of them. Make sure you know how or get some one else too do it. Make sure that the right ones have power and ground. Using a 12 volt test light is fine. I actually had a bad ground from the ecu. It was grounding it out ever time power went to it and would blow a fuse.
If you mess up, just do the whole timing belt change
Just did mine. Not hard at all. Just takes time and patience. Again, follow directions. Maybe read over the HOW-TO twice before doing it would help.As for car overheat, it could be that you either didn't put it back correctly and miss a tooth like someone said or you miss a connector. Go over everything and make sure it's pluged back correctly. GL
