T-belt and top end work...
Exactly this.. I never did one personally but am familiar with the job on a DSM. This is my first time. I am not cranking the engine until it's turned over multiple times triple checking everything to make sure it's stat.. You DO NOT just slap these together and make sure it's good when it's running.. I might as well go to AC and plop 2 G on the roulette wheel..
If you're familiar with the timing on a DSM than the timing belt on the EVO 8 is a piece of cake... The lower end basically times identically to a DSM ... The timing mark on the cam gears line up to marks on the Valve cover itself....no guess work... much easier than trying to line the marks on the cams together like on a DSM..... The 9 and 10 are a different story though ;-) ..SO even if you didnt mark the old belt and transfer the marks to the new belt you should have no problems figuring out how to line it all up
