    So my friend, yeah right your thinking. But no really, my friend just did the cam chain on his 06' and may have made a boo boo.

    So, we're thinking he may have been 180 out when doing the swap........

    Completely bad, yes? Need to take it apart and get everything lined up proper again, right?

    Not that big a deal really unless you are out 180 and bent something finding out that you are 180 out ....

    Just re-time it ....

    What makes you think your 180 out? Did the valves hit?

    No nothing bad happened. Once things were back together and he went to adjust the valves it was apparent that it was 180 out...... it was a quick re-do and nothing to note otherwise. Just a reminder to everyone to make sure your on the right stroke when doing the cam chain........
