how do i get the stock sproket off of the crank snout

 

you will need atleast a 2 arm puller.You can rent a puller from autozone for cheap.

 

after i take it off do i need anything special to install the new one

 

I used a two arm puller. I believe it was a 4in? anyway the basterd did not reach all the way. So I had to get creative cause the crank bolt stuck out to far. I had to unscew the crank bolt and put a wrench arcoss the hole so that I could use that for the end of the puller.

 

If you are installing a new double row chain you can use the old sprocket to push the new one on. If not, use a large deep well socket or a brass knocker.

 

Yeah I used the old one as well.

 

What you want to do is put the new crank sproket on first then put the old one on facing the new one. Insert the crank bolt and tighten it down which will force the new sproket into place. Make sure the Crank and Cam gears/sprokets are seated as much as possbile and are in line. If they are seated proplerly they will also be in line of course. Remember to line up the dots on the gears themselves not the key way dot on the crank gear!! If you do that kiss your vavles goodbye. Rembember to manually turn the crank and make sure you don't have any interferance anywhere just as a precaution.

 

thanks for the good info that really helps

 

so i'm stuck again, i've got the slp double roller and there is a bearing with rubber on one side and metel on the other-Where does that go?
i think it goes on the snout between the sprocket because it's two piece, not between the sprocket and motor.

 

also i have tthe thunder racing ported oil pump-do i need to use the shims

 

Are you refering to the plate that holds the cam in block and keeps it from walking back and forth.

 

Yeah you need the oil pump to clear the timing chain.

 

Yes , if not your chain will hit the oil pump. Also you might have to get your pulley machined alittle bit. I think it in the instructions with timing chain set.

 

no not the cam plate, i've got this bearing it's a roller bearing 1/8th of an in think that now that i look closer might go on the back of the cam sprcket,but i'm not sure-it came with the slp kit

 

i'm using an slp pulley also, and i was told by speed inc that there wouldn't be any problems with that clearing but thanks for the heads up

 

O.k., slp already machines thier pulley's so you should be good with that. That bearing somehow go's between the cam and keeper plate. Mine is like that but it's been some time since I put it in there.
