Can Any Southerners Drill And Tap A Tensioner Bolt?

[SKiT_R31]

Hey all,

I have built an RB30DET and put it in my girlfriends S13; I was intending to use the factory tensioner and idler locations (with 2 tensioners and 150 tooth belt) but upon test cranking it tries to skip teeth (and tightening it further causes self clearance issues...).

I'm happy to pay the going rate for your services, just need a hole drilled and a thread tapped, sometime on the weekend if possible?

The engine IS in the car but I have removed the bumper/cooler/radiator support so it shouldn't be an issue, but at worst I have a hoist and can lift it off the mounts.

I would do it myself but the I do not have the equipment and It's probably not a good idea for a first time drill and tap to be done on something as critical as a timing belt tensioner .

Cheers,

PM me or Post for interest
