Re: RH upgraded Cam tensioner impressions
So Carter sells them as his design candle holders and has copyright on them for the next 100 years or so

Re: RH upgraded Cam tensioner impressions
All he needs to do is put one little tweak on it, maybe an engraving of the ZR-1 symbol or something and it becomes something different.

Re: RH upgraded Cam tensioner impressions
Yeah, I would definitely agree on abandoned! If I'm wrong, go buy some at your local Chevrolet dealership.
I don't think anyone gives a flip if parts for the LT5 are reproduced. Heck, what about rods, pistons, sleeves, valves, water pumps, alternators and a plethora of other LT5 specific parts that have been.

Re: RH upgraded Cam tensioner impressions
I remember back in my days in the PI there was a candle involved but that is for another time

Re: RH upgraded Cam tensioner impressions
Dynomite,
Sometimes you make my head hurt, but you are probably a genius and that is why. I failed to post the instruction sheet that comes with the tensioner kit and because of my great organization, I had to buy another kit since I could not find the one I originally bought. While preparing to move I found the original kit and not sure if I put it with my long term storage or shipped with my parts in my household goods to Japan. If I come across it I will try to coodinate with Carter to have the housing duplicated, if not it will be 5 years before see it again. The instructions do indicate how critical it is to set the hole in the proper location but I can't even remember those details right now. I think I have a scan of the instructions on my computer and will send them to you if so since I could not figure out how to post the PDF file at the time other than individual page scans with another format. I'm glad to see Darryl's post as to how these upgraded housings really help since I was not able to really notice in my situation. They were kind of expensive if I remember correctly and wondered if worth the money at the time.
