Thank you very much for the detailed explaination.
I:
- had previously moved the pump, so I abandoned getting a baseline.
- rotated the pump as far away from the block as I could...very helpful to have that room in the future.
- set #1TDC and flywheel to zero.
- used a preload of 4mm on the tool. I suspect it was too soft or the tool was somehow bound up when I got the .23 measurement.
- loosened the camshaft rear sprocket nut.
- rotated the IP sprocket backward to the lowest point on the tool and zero'd it.
- rotated IP sprocket forward until the tool read .90mm.
- retightend the camshaft nut.
Here is a photo of the access I have to the back of the motor: (note that the nuts are below the access hatch, it is pretty steep)
Then I checked it:
- spin engine forward one full cycle.
- set ~4mm preload on the tool.
- rotate engine forward until reaching the lowest value on the tool and zero tool.
- rotate the engine forward and verified the tool bottoms out at 0 and rises to .91mm, then back to zero as I continue to spin the engine.
- verified that while checking the timing the total range of the tool was ~1.6mm
Here is a video of the first startup, cold.

To me, it has just a bit of a ping.
Thanks gents!
Any other thoughts at the moment?
I am now going to remove the turbo or exhaust manifold and add an EGT before the turbo and also add a boost gauge.
Once that is all in place, I will reconfigure the fuel flows. As i do that i will be looking to calculate an optimal turbo upgrade.
Thanks again?
