VVT CAM install
Just got done installing VVT2 Cam by GPI. It has a little wiggle room. It moves horizontal about 1/4 of an inch. Is that normal? I had to pull it forward to get the phase r bolted up to it.

That's my old plate. You can see it is definitely doing some rubbing. Seems like you would not want that.....but I guess GM knows what they are doing......

I just swapped the camshaft on my L99 in August 2020... I already forgot how it looked in there exactly. Were you able to assemble the timing chain without dropping the oil pan? I tried and tried but ended up having to drop the pan and loosen the oil pump.

Also be sure to put a new o ring on the pump if you drop the pan.

I had to drop mine also. After I spent 3 hours trying to find the double threaded stud bolt on the driver's side that hold the starter cable tray.
 0 documentation on that little bastard!!! Ended up tieing some fishing string around it. Did you replace oil pan gasket?   Sent from my SM-F916U using Tapatalk |
