06 s 40 Help camshaft

Post by lightshinesthrew »

hello all,and thank you for all the help I've read threw the years. the gist of my situation.is this timing belt broke of course valves were bent. i had the head done and cams polished. what a mistake.putting everything back together. i got a gut feeling the cam lobes weren't right. even after the marks all lined up. exhaust points 12 o'clock and the intake lobes point roughly 9 o'clock does anyone have pictures of cam cover off and timing belt change for the t5 model. to place my mind at ease.. thanks and bless you

You will need to start by checking part numbers to make sure the right cam is in the correct slot.

Then use cam lock tool to set up VVT and follow attached procedure until the finish.

Hope that helps

Slightly off topic Q: What was the mileage when the belt broke? Any other complicating factors?

Same cam lobe position and firing order as any other 5 pot whiteblock engine.

The 850 head replacement tutorial has some pics of the lobes you can use on your S40
