CM 871 Timing

[Rawze]

I have never had to use anything but 4/6 wedge on a CM871 engine... And they all come from the factory at that setting, the software expects them to all be set at exactly 4/6. - Not sure that the older methods even really apply on them as such, but that is up in the air for speculation.

Most of the time when they do this older methods, they also don't properly use loc-tite-609 on the tapered gears to secure them, so that they can take them on and off... Also only setting liner height to 0.010" (or less), and a lot of other things that i would not trust one damn bit.



Was it counter-bored?-- liners raised to 0.014"? -- was it a brand new head? Was it all OEM parts?

I would be skeptical of this build.


just my thoughts when reading this.
