lol yeah my mate is very particular about doing everything right! everything is going smoothly so far... took us forever to get the VTC actuator off the camshaft (im only using 25degree on the K20 cams)... but apart from that, all good :thumbsup: touch wood!

i have in my possesion a VTEC testing aparatus, so tomorrow we will be bolting on the cams, actuating to 25degree advance, and engaging VTEC, then hand cranking the engine to check piston to valve clearance :)

this is exciting.......................

nearly finished! hehehe

got the whole block and head back together :) just got a few things to re-connect tomorrow, and then itll be towed back to my house tomorrow morning... (still awaiting K20 water outlet :()

here are some more pics :D

lol K-series use timing chain instead of timing belt... dont know why... more friction equals less power :( but i suppose they last longer!

and yes, i replaced with a brand new one :)
