Cam Gears - Install Guide
IPP Adj. Cam Gear Installation Guide
 

How to Install Your New IPP Adjustable Timing Gear:
Set your gear down on a flat surface and run a straight edge across the "0" mark and the "-3" mark. You will find that the "0" mark falls in between two of the gears teeth. You'll need to make a reference mark on the flat surface you're working on to show where these two teeth are (illustration point A). You'll also want to make a mark where the factory timing mark tooth is (illustration point B). You'll notice that there are 8 teeth in between point A and point B.

For illustration purposes we'll show you how to advance your cam 2 degrees but the process is the same for any setting: Run your straight edge across the "+2" mark and the "-2" mark and you'll notice that the "-2" mark also falls in between two of the gears teeth. Rotate your new IPP timing gear until the two "-2" teeth line up with the reference marks you made for the "0" mark from illustration point A. Illustration point B will now be lined up with the new timing mark tooth for the "-2" setting. There should still be 8 teeth in between point A and point B.

Once you have located the new timing mark tooth make sure you mark it in some way. You're now ready to install the gear in your engine. Install the gear on the camshaft with the camshaft dowel pin installed in the desired adjusted setting. Rotate the camshaft until the new timing mark tooth lines up with the pointer on the timing chain tensioner just as you would with a factory gear. Line up the crankshaft just as you always would, install the timing chain and tensioner, you're now good to go!
