mk2 pb cam

hi while i carry on thinking what engine to put in my mk2, im goin to cam it and then put the engine outa mine into my mates. i want a 276 in it is just a case of swapping the cam over ? or is not a simple as this?

 

Think u just swap it over, you have to line it up properly tho

 

what do i have to line up?

 

the dot on the inside of the pulley with the top of the head, not the gasket or the cover the highest point on the head.

 

cheers mate

 

"The dot on the inside of the Cam pulley with the top of the head, not the gasket or the cover the highest point on the head."

Also the TDC mark on Crank pully with arrow on lower timing cover
which will correspond with the dot in the clutch flywheel to the gearbox pointer which you will see when you unscrew the green plastic plug ( The larger notch is your timing setting)

Once both are lined with belt on, tighten the belt.

 

I assumed that he would do that..........yep I forgot that bit

 

nice 1 will give it a go this weekend
