Could someone check out the timing marks on their cloyes double roller timing gears for me? The info is on the back of the box and I don't have the box anymore. I need to know what the marks on the crank sprocket gear represent. I know one mark is for 2 degrees advance, one for straight up, and one for 2 degrees retard, I just don't know which mark goes to which degree.

Please confirm, Thanks

 

its the one with the triangle cut out of the top. it should be with the dot straight up at TDC.

 

well i helped brad(turbo_Z) with his and i think he is right. If it is set up for retarded timing, straight up and then advanced wouldn't the center key be the straight up one then?

 

TTT for ya Gary, I sure wish that I had saved my box We need to know which mark is for 2 dg retard and 2 dg advance.

Thanks

 

2 Degree advanced is the Triangle shape
2 Degree retarded is the Square shape
Straight up is the O shape

 

Thank You very much

 

the crank sprocket needs to be installed straight up if you want your car to run right... if you didnt know. so if #1 cylindar is TDC then put the strocket on so the dot points straight up or 12 o'clock and youll be fine. i believe most if not all LT1 cams are ground with a 4 degree advance in them too.

 

Thanks for the help everyone, Ken that's the info I was looking for.

Thanks James for keeping the thread up.
