Cam chain clearance to block
I just put on a Rollmaster CS2090 and it looks super close to the #1 side of the block. I saw a note in the box that some grinding may be needed so I guess this is what they were talking about? No marks or scraping sounds when turning over to degree the cam. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...ff23bc182.jpeg |
Can you push it towards the block and cause the chain to make contact at any point?
|
Hard to tell. I’ll try to stick a feeler gauge behind it as I can’t tell if it’s hitting the block or sprocket. Is this a common issue? |
Is this a step nose cam with the retainer, cant recall from your other thread on which one to buy
|
I can't answer that question but it definitely looks close.
|
I was just about to say "maybe speedy will chime in here".
|
Yep. Gen VI step nose with retainer. Chain set has the Torrington bearing. |
I guess if they send a note in the box their product has clearance issues in some cases. that really blow's who wants to grind on a new build
|
A little annoyed about grinding on a fresh engine and will have to tape everything off like heart surgery. I guess the trade off is that it *may* fit under the factory cover (it’s a lot easier to grind/replace the cover though). Otherwise it’s a really nice set for the money. Installed the cam straight up and was within a half degree of spec. |
Did you price Cloyes, just curios how they priced out............never used roll master
