yo howd ur cam work. Im dynoing now (2 day process) and its givin the tuner problems... what did u make with it.
Remember the shims on the oil pump if u have the double timing chain, if not, theres a hump on the pan so even if u do drop the bolt it shouldnt fall into the bottom of the pan. anyway lower the pan down as much as possible, loosen all bolts, and take out the 2 from the back of the bell houseing. It wont hurt to have a magnet around so if it falls it clings to that.
