timing chain
is there a way u can adjust the timing chain, cause my chain is pretty loose up top or if i have to replace it do u have to take the head off
it looks like a bitch man i just put the motor in runs fine but makes a knocking sound from the chain i knew i should of checked it before i put it in
and on the cam sprocket do both the dots have to line up i ready set the timing by pulling the cas out and putting turing it until the line lines up w the middle dot then put it back in and the exhaust cam turned it a little and i adjusted it back to the top middle hole and tightening the cas down the i looked at the cam sprockets and the holes werent matched up r they suppose to be lined up together wasnt sure oh yeah and i had it at no 1 tdc
thanks

Re: timing chain
it would really help if you told us what kind of motor it was on
because setting up a timing chain on a small block chevy is a little different than doing one on a d-series :/
