Btw....

Let me put out what I've gathered about the timing chain guides on these motors, and you tell me, or anyone else in the conversation tell me what they think.

From what I've read, the guides fail do to a weak tensioner. When the tensioner get week, the chains slap the guides and break them into pieces. Its not that the guides all the sudden fall apart.

So as long as you keep a good tensioner in the motor you shouldn't have to worry about the guides going bad.


Otherwise where you have this motor town down to, you'd be stupid not to replace them. Right?
