@@Motor_Marv_Customs on da real dude it sounds like u already know and that’s why I didn’t say much plus I wouldn’t be able to tell u this stuff in a text really so keep watching the videos and doing research u will figure it out just know I can only say so much in a text to try to explain it to u ! I’ll try to explain stuff but I know it’s other vids out there showing how cause that’s how I learned so do more research u will find it ! But yes there is 2 marks on the chain and it is a certain amount of links in between the 2 marks top mark u line up with the top of the motor and the bottom has a mark on the gear ⚙️and don’t forget to be at top dead center first
Were you having chain slap / rattle? New chain and guides fix it?
Yes I was and yes it fixed it but on that truck it was more problems than I was willing to fix
@@Izreal3345 You still have it?
@@weekendhomeprojects no got rid of it I have the red one now
I have to do the same to the red one so get ready for that soon
How do you properly time the chain?
U line the chain with the marks
@@Izreal3345 is that all like where should the cam and crank indicator be positioned?

@@Izreal3345 thank you! I really appreciate the help hopefully I can get this build running right after today
Did you have to drop the oil pan? Or just remove whatever bolts attached to the front cover? Gonna be doing mine tomorrow but on a 240sx
John Mate no not exactly just loosened it enough to get the timing chain cover off
@@Izreal3345 appreciate the reply, thats relieving. Really didnt want to drop that oil pan cause i heard it was a PITA
John Mate to drop the oil pan it’s not that bad to do it u may have to to seal it back up so ur not in the clear yet lol
what did you use to seal the timing cover back on ?
Black RTV gasket maker
Did your chain slap stop??
Yes it did
