Insane Timing
Well I got some cams from my friends third generation 94 integra ls...after some inspecting I discoverd the the lobes were slightly larger but other then that they should work in the b18a1 motor. Well a few days ago my friend helped me put them in took us about an hour total got them in, checked everything put the valve cover on and a new gasket, started the car and well it worked but when I got it on the road to drive it...the car was sluggish, so our thought was timing...and behold the intake came was about 20 degrees advnced and the exhaust cam was about 5 degrees retarded.
Well today I finally got a day off work to play with it and now that I look at everything I'm wondering how the hell this car was running. I have the crank pulley alligned at Top dead center (via the red mark on the accessory pulley)..with this the cam gears however are upside down instead of the up mark being at the top they are somewhat alligned at 4 o'clock....right now I'm thinking :wtf: ....any ideas?
