I'm in Newport News, VA. Anyone who could help me do this would be much appreciated; if you've successfully done a timing belt on an LS or B20, just send me a PM.
Good beer and chronic to anyone who comes out, and of course, you'll get to see a fully wire-tucked B20 swapped Integra come to life.
Wish I could help. From what I know and heard you should be okay, once you tension the belt.
There is slack in the belt between the cam gears. I thought, this couldn’t be right. The first time I installed one, I thought there shouldn’t be this slack. I thought I’d take that slack out of the belt and go to the next tooth. I was WRONG. What I failed to realize was, this was correct and was just the rigging phase. I hadn’t actually adjusted the tension on the belt yet.
