Hi All;
I ordered the Z bracket and the gauge from PP and spent the day prepping the engine to check. I installed the collars and they did not have that much room so I am assuming the chain has not stretched much. Teeth and innards all looked fine also. I cleaned up the engine and replaced a leaking oil line to the left side. Bolted up the tensioners and now wait for the parts.
Thanx again for all the help and I hope to have pix and data as soon as I get the parts. Again, I really appreciate this help and I also think this should go into the 101 projects book as a check for a tensioner install or upgrade --- this was really valuable data!
Thanx again!
Joe
