Needs modification to deal with major headache

The front top bolt hole had to remove the bushing and add washers as it would not line up with the center of the hole. Also, the eccentric shaft shim hole varies about 1-2 millimeters from being too large, does not seal, causes a vacuum leak that is very difficult to find, causes the check engine light to come on and gives a MAF sensor code, and when accelerating causes a large one Lots of oil in the system and blowing out so much freight train smoke that one thinks of burnt heads or bad valve guides. The price is great, but the headache it causes isn't worth it.

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Minor issues
