hi,
was wondering if I could see a few variations of tensioner / idler setups for the old 30det.
Also what modifications were required to the lower and upper covers (if any) were made (also 30 lower cover / 26 lower cover??)
My twin pulley (idler and tensioner) was done by nisspeed and is a bolt on application (i believe). I'm using a 30 lower cover and all the holes line up and i had to cut out the side and weld in a rolled section for the bulge of the idler (on the exhaust side).
I mated this up with a 26 top cover and the gap is hideous, the belt is close to the cam gear cover (again on the exhaust side) at the very bottom of the cover...
I think I will have to modify the cam gear cover (shorter) - then extend the lower cover (higher) to the right shape... and right clearances....
lets see some pics.
cheers
