That's awesome! I used to do that kind of work but that was the days of the simple chevy v8's and 4 cylinders. My hats off to you for taking on that monumental task. Aside from the Saab days, I haven't seen another engine with the timing chains at the back of the engine. Cool design when new but shitty when you have to deal with it later on.

yeah labor would have been $3K to $5K to have it done.

Did you see a degradation in performance.....or was there a CEL thrown for a timing code of some sort?
