Tonight I added The Rocker to the top of the engine.

 With the rocker added I set the gap between the valve and tappet of 0.012″

I then moved to the timing chain on the front of the engine. Where are you ROY. I could really do with some support on this one.  I know this is one of the trickiest things to get right with the rebuild. 

First was to add the shims back behind the cog on the crank shaft.

The shims are added to make sure the cog is in line with the other two.

I then tried the chain. I’m not sure if the cam is in the right place. I will have to re check it after reading the manual again. (The manual isn’t that helpful. It flits around from page to page so much)
