Title: Not sure if a deal or not but
Post by: Essex_Andy on 02 January 2007, 21:01:21

Just bought a sykes pickavant cam locking kit on E-gay.

Also got a haynes Omega manual and an auxillary drive belt for £70

So almost there to do the 3.0 cams, breather clean up, powerflow exhaust system and 3.0 throttle body swap into my 2.5 :D

Andy,
            it was mine. Everything is sound and is ready to go in the post to you tomorrow. Feedback left.

By the way the MX5 is my wifes but i did fit a rather large Turbo and intercooler so perhaps it's not so girly now  ;D

Cheers Darryl

Your welcome mate. I did the belt on my V6 with that kit and the timing was bang on. Best advice i can give you is take your time and make sure the marks line up well on the figure of eight tool.

Yup, the SP kit is good. Watch the DVD a few times, and it your can't go wrong...
