I've had my block line honed, and becasue of this, the crank shifts towards the cam. How tight should the belt on a belt setup be? Anyone?

good point, but it'll only be a few 0.000s closer, surely,

I had the same problem, but added a tensioner, the same as what SH eng used to supply. Also Swifty used to sell a chain duplex kit in 2 different sizes for 1 and 2 line bores. But I believe both of them don't bother anymore, they just make sure they are line bored correctly and use good components and this does the job

If it a'nt broke don't fix it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
