I'm changing back to a chain however i wasn't the one that put the belt in, i was just wondering if anyone had any tips and tricks for the conversion and if it is worth doing with the engine in keeping in mind i would prefer not to have to take it out again.........ill be using the 'MED STEEL VERNIER DUPLEX' with the iwis chain if this assists.

Cheers,

Bill

You can do it in the car no probs, just need radiator, mechanical fan and water pump pulley, and starter motor off

I'm assuming you'll need to time the cam in again as well

I never, just make sure they don't move, its a bit of a game to get both sprockets lined up whilst the chain is on, but possible
