MGF Race Car - Putting The Top Half Of The Engine Together. (VVC Mech Timing)

Putting together the top half of the engine, and going in depth with timing up the vvc mechs.
also we fit a sump baffle plate and finishing off putting the engine together.
I do also have another video on semi building an engine so check that out also, think there will be enough information in these videos to get you sorted but any questions, I'm always happy to help with advice.

Excellent video, thanks for doing it...I was a bit unsure how to time mine up after the belt snapped but this really helps a lot.

Any chance you could add a link to the previous video showing the cam belt reassembly? I’ll have another look for it but couldn’t find it when I looked earlier.

I really need to see this as well.

Could i remove the cam carrier and vvc mechs all as one unit to reseal the cam carrier to the head? I had my head skimmed after HGF and the place i took it to has used RTV to seal it, its been 8 months and its now pissing oil out. funny how when i fitted the sump with 574 its bone dry!

You will need to remove the oil control valve to access the bolt underneath, but you can remove with the cams and control shaft in, you will just need to make sure it get it timed up through the Inspection holes.
Yes rtv is lethal in this circumstance, if it don't leak, it will block up the oil galleries to the cams.

Hi Greg, where do you get the oil baffle from ?
