[QUOTE="Chris W, post: 127333, member: 4772"] So after removing the timming chest and timming plate and gears , I found a roller at the bottom of the chest just behind the idle. Stripped it all down adjusted it and replaced everything back in order , surprisingly on inspection there was hardly any wear on the cams a d look very good. Just one more question before I tighten the timming plate, all the shims are in order no groves etc and it sits level , do you have a torque setting for these nuts only one has a l8ck plate like in the book (Middle) , the rubber seals are also very supple and have not gone hard . Thank guys you have been very helpful. [/QUOTE]
