@bowtiebuilding Жыл бұрын

Trying to help a buddy that I sold an 07-13 model truck to and it’s throwing a timing code. They say the chain seems loose and I was sure I lined the cam and crank up right. It’s one of those VVT single bolt cams and it’s just hard to see. I did replace the factory timing chain dampener with a LS2 style(solids plastic) any tips on lining that cam phaser up?

The problem with these phase limiters are that they do not fully lock out the cam sprocket, the sprocket can still slightly move on the inside , on the dyno there has been erratic readings and power loss issues with those phaser lockout kits. Ditch that setup and use a LS3 sprocket and billet timing cover. Also, that sprocket has to weight 10lbs, think about taking that rotating mass off the camshaft.

Armando Monreal Late Model Engines offers the Gen V LT1/LT4 VVT delete front kit. Comes with a new billet timing cover, LS3 single bolt cam sprocket, cam bolt. Also it utilizes a LS3 front seal which is less prone to having failures like the factory LT style seal is plagued with. It’s $500, while it’s considerably more expensive, it’s well worth the investment.

FYI: This phaser limiter restricts the variable valve timing from 60 degrees down to 20 degrees of variability.... MORE INFO (for the curious people)....The Cam Phaser is an adjustable sprocket that controls the position of the camshaft relative to the timing of the crankshaft. This is also known as Variable Valve TIming (VVT). The phaser can advance the cam timing at low RPM for a smoother running engine and ideal low RPM performance and then retard timing at higher RPM for more horsepower and performance. The adjustable sprocket is controlled hydraulically using engine oil and the computer to open the solenoid.

@andrewwilkinson5220 4 жыл бұрын

Thanks for making these videos. Do you need the phaser adjuster because of the new camshaft you are using? In other words, what would happen if you did not install the limiter? I just thought that the point of the vvt was to increase performance, so why is it necessary to limit it?

@TheSundaeDrive 4 жыл бұрын

Technically you could just use the ECU to control cam timing and limit the VVT via software. Since we are using a more aggressive cam we want to be sure to avoid any piston-to-valve clearance issues. Adding the physical cam phaser limiter is a form of added insurance. If there is ever some sort of error via a sensor or software the VVT might advance the cam too far causing valve interference. The cam phaser limiter will ensure it does not advance more than 20 degrees
