Re: Finished cc306 swap! (pics & vids & a couple ?'s)

Any insight on the Electric Waterpump wiring...i looked at the Ken Lowarence (sp) page it's kinda confusing though...i don't want to run a switch i just want it to run when the ignition is on! Is it ok to leave it wired to the AC/Cruise Control fuse or do i need a relay...if so what kind do i need and how do i wire it up!?

If they are too tight (which they are based on how you described setting them) then it will idle like **** and you could possibly collapse some of the stock lifters. Adjust those immendiately.

Holy crap, I saw this thread yesterday, but just now listened to that video...sounds mean as hell. I guess this cam will go nicely with the new rotating assembly I am installing later this year.
