You need to find true top dead center and then look at where the gam gear is sitting so you know if you are out a tooth or not.

Looking forward to hearing how you get on with it.

its going to the installer in a few hours, to have my work checked, is why im not reving it, made some odd nioses at 4000, so im staying under 3000 for the trip back.

but it already feels better down low. hope it works out.

might even see if i can upgrade to an r6 by drag day.
