The following instructions begin after the timing cover and old timing set have been removed.
Installing the timing set and degreeing the camshaft will be easier if you loosen the rocker arms so that the camshaft can turn freely. You should be able to turn the camshaft by hand. Make sure that the engine mounting surfaces and your new timing set have been thoroughly cleaned with a good solvent. If you are using a timing set with three keyways, select the appropriate keyway for your camshaft timing specifications. COMP Cams ® recommends the standard timing position for most applications. This position uses the round or “O” timing and keyway marks. Standard Timing Location: This is the same as original O.E.M. setting. Use keyway and crankshaft gear tooth marked “O”.

Tools & Procedures
• EQUIPMENT: Damper Installation Tool
• Anti-seize Compound
• The Proper Key
• Whenever it’s necessary to remove a vibration damper, only a proper puller tool should be used.
• DO NOT use a hammer during installation.
• Honing or machining Fluidampr bore is not recommended. A diametrical press fit of .0005″ to .0015″ is recommended for proper damper function. (Aluminum Fluidampr p/n’s 630102, 630112, 630602, 660202, 720102, 720112, 740102, 730602 & 740112 require a diametrical press fit of .001″ to .0025″.) If a micrometer is available, you may want to measure the crank snout and the inner bore of Fluidampr to assure proper fit.
