yeah well the thing i experienced was sure caused by too tight t-belt tension, but then a rocker fell off after/while an hour of driving at 100mph+ speeds.. broke my cam between the first cyl valves and messed up my head cam bearings. only had it 1.5kmls on the road so far
i'd rather not have something like that ever happen again, i know the t-belt tension was my fault but anyways.. i decided to spend some $$, do it once do it right kinda thing.
the 995 beehives sure seem like a very good part, i already found someone to share them with so i'm going this route. i already purchased the pt lifters as well. so now i'm looking for retainers and keepers. i might just bite and get a set of the Ti's just for kicks. that is, if i can find someone to share them with
if anyone is interested just shoot me a pm!
if the 774 are suitable, i guess that would mean we could get either 772 or 762. need to take a look at the keepers mentioned here.
thanks for all your comments and help guys! i'll keep you posted
P.S. i just found that summit is also selling these retainers as singles! the p/n would be cca-772-1. they're also 10 bucks cheaper than the (16) set if you'd buy 16 of the singles lol.
the locks GLHSLNT2 (did i get that right?) specified, cca-629, only have one groove, iirc our locks/valves have like 2 or 3? also can someone confirm about the 5.5mm valve stem diameter? i'd need to go and measure otherwise
thanks again
