Shims are installed and now I am swapping out the
stock cam chain tensioner for the APE piece. The company
recommends turning the motor over and bring the tensioner
in until it touches the tensioner guide makes contact with
the chain then back it out 1/4 turn and lock the backup nut.
My question is besides the instructions included with it
what is the general rule of thumb is for chain tightness.
Is there a common deflection that is used between the
two cam sprockets? Thanks for the help thus far.
