    All of that RTV will eat that gasket away. Only apply 2 dabs at the bottom of the timing cover to seal with the bottom of the block.

    Great video Robert! I’ll be installing a retro-hydraulic roller camshaft soon in a 1969 Camaro 302 . Any chance posting a video on how to properly install a Cloyes timing cover with adjustable cam button and how to set it?

      Hope its a firm cast aluminum cover. Take a couple measurements of where a nice big flat section of the cam timing gear is. That will be the location of where you will drill a tap for a 1/8" NPT flush mount plug.
      Install a cam button.
      Take the plug out.
      Loosely place the gasket (no goop), and the cover into place, tighten it up a bit.
      Push the cam to the back of the engine through the hole you drilled.
      Now place a dial indicator into the hole, hitting the gear.
      Move the cam forward, against the button, using a soft tipped screw driver from one of the lifter bores.
      Check the indicator.
      I think most companies want 0.010" clearance, but check what yours needs.
      Add washers, or grind the button till you get what you want for clearance.
      Then do final install of your cover and the pipe plug.
      Done!

    Do you recommend scuffing the chrome on back side or will the slick surface still seal good?

    Why even a gasket if you use rtv on both sides? Rtv is only supposed to go on the cover side not the block side.
