you need to run another pulley guide just above the bottom pulley between that and the waterpump.
a long 13mm bolt with some tubular washers on do the job.- straight into one of the OE holes on the side of the block.

I run a campus pulley and shorter belt but don't rev to 9k :laugh: only seen 7k with this engine. Not noticed any side effects to be honest.

Mine has never thrown a belt at high revs it has one of those bolt things that fits in the block to stop it from happening.:)

I was just wondering as I see lots of people saying they rev to 8/8.5k rpm, the main thing i'm worried about is push rods and valves collets ect.

I over revved once and dropped a valve, a collet gave way and it wasn't a pretty sight when the head came off!

It's kind of put me off ever since:scared:

So you people who rev to 8k plus do you have any other changes other than valve springs?
