[Possible stupid question]
Is there a way to tighten the bolt (just to be sure) or just to check if it has sufficient "tightness" before the cbc install ? |

Don't mess with it. It's torqued to around 200 ft/lbs. There's no way to adjust it without locking the crankshaft to prevent it from turning.

Just researching crank hub issues before purchasing a used F80/82/83 and came across this write up. Probably the best write up I've ever seen - well done sir.

I recognize that the CBC is not a full crank hub solution; therefore, I am unwilling to go any more agressive with the tune. |

Full E85 + Meth on Stock Turbos with Crank Bolt Capture for over a year. Many Drag Strip passes too.
Zero issues !!!!

How many miles does your car have now and how many miles have you put on it tuned with CBC? Anyone else had just the CBC long term? |

Just did this install, two tricks I learned that might be useful:
1) if the crank pulley moves (which mine did) just put a torx bit in the tensioner with a ratchet on it, then wedge it with a pipe on the end towards the intake to hold the belt loose (made it easy to work on after that) 2) if you take your cell phone in video mode with the flashlight on you can see easily what’s going on inside the crank pulley in terms of alignment Overall this install was much easier than I was expecting |

Quick question. I plan to replace the belts while im in there and wanted to drop the fan from below. Does the car need to be raised very high if done on jackstands to clear the fan from the car or am i able to tilt it diagonally out of the car?
Thanks. |
