I'm in the slow process of getting ready to put my block etc. back together. I've got the new block and lots of new parts. Now I am second guessing myself so I thought I'd get some opinions here.
New block, new timing cover, chain, tensioners, crank gear, etc. Reworked cylinder head. So the existing camshafts have the 1 gear attached like this:
I purchased the subgear for the passenger side camshaft. But, I am wondering do I use that gear (nothing wrong with existing camshaft or gears) and subgear? Or do I replace just the subgear? ORRRRRR, do I just replace both camshafts with new? I know it sounds simple, but I am overthinking it. To avoid the cost of the new camshafts would be good. What do others think?
