Hi
I would like some advice on the initial setup of a Cloyes 3 keyway Timing chain and gear. The instructions are a little vague for me. The three keyways, according to the factory instructions are Retard keyway, Factory keyway and Advance keyway. Do I assume that this will be adjusted and setup once fitted using a degree wheel (I have one on order)? If thats the case, what will I set the timing chain\gear to initially? Do I just fit it using the Factory keyway and then use the Degree wheel to set everything up after(never used a degree wheel before but I am sure it will be well explained).
One other question while I'm at it(!). I got a set of ARP head stud to fit the AFR heads to the block. They came with stud guides but no washers. Is that OK or do I need washers as well?
Thanks
Martin
