Good video up until the very end. Was a little short on showing what was adjusted to get the timing back in. All we saw was turning the crank sprocket, looking then tightening everything up . i think maybe a third video expanding on this piece would be helpful. ie Turn the crank and cam together until the cam is in the vertical plane, against the head. then loosen the four bolts in the slots so the cam doesnt move when the crank does, then turn crank until pin goes in . then bolt 4 bolts in slots down. I know it because i have done it, but for those who have never done it , it may be confusing. Great vid though.

Thanks for both these videos - very informative. I am going to get this done on my 2001 911 C4 this spring. My cam deviation is at around 7. I am paying a mechanic to do this and a bunch of other stuff while the engine is out. This video does make me think I could do it myself someday when I have more time. Cheers from Penticton, BC.

Correction.... thats a 3/16 bolt. I used a butterfly (spring toggle) bolt.

It's true I've been rather lax where it concerns my KZfaq channel. I'm working on a Porsche themed documentary and my energy has been channeled in that direction. I'll try to get something out soon for my loyal subscribers! Cheers, J.

i suspect there is a good reason (although maybe not obvious) why the threads are reversed. as an example of what appears to be an inexplicable engineering quirk that has a very reasonable explanation.... campagnolo (a prestigious italian bicycle drivetrain manufacturer) made a simple screw in both left and right threads. they did it because it threaded into what appeared to be the same part, but they offered one made of steel and a more expensive one made of titanium. they wanted to avoid potential galvanic reaction problems from mismatched metals so made the threads different to prevent their misuse.

I've heard, anecdotally, that some models used the right hand thread. For the simple job that this bolt does, it's beyond me to find a reason. 🤔
