They don't need to be centered, the bolt just cant be hitting the side of the slot. Unless the cam timing is way way off I think your probably looking at the wrong thing.

Hm ill try to open the valve cover take a pic and post here so you can tell me if i did something wrong, meanwhile ill test all the coils and see if i can discover a intake leak to see if it solves some of the shaking

Hey guys i have a question about my exhaust, i made all my exhaust in 3" but because of legal reasons in my country im obligated to install a muffler specific for my car, and that mufflers is a single 2.5" inlet and 3" dual outlet....
Do you think it will restrict alot or it makes not much of a diference? my turbo is a gt3076 and im think of upgrading to a gt3582r, what do you guys think?

thx

3" would be better, but unless your running crazy boost with that turbo, probably won't be noticeable all that much. Few HP up top

Guys can anyone tell me if the arp head studs need retorque after first warmup? cuz i started seeing some leaks and went to check under the intake manifold and it seems like the HG is wet from the coolant? i got a athena cooper ring head gasket with fire rings and machined my block and head so it wasnt suposed to be leaking right? Pls help? i torqued the arp studs to 75 lbft

thx

You machined your timing cover bolted to the block ? Or you just machined the block ?

Just machined the block, but the HG is wet under the temp sensors and completly clean around the cover, what making me mad its because the Athena gaskets tells you that you dont need to machine the block... do i need to retorque the arp bolts or im just f**cked and need to do a HG again when the engine dint even run for a total of 1 hour... omg im so mad, cuz i know i did everything right, i know that you are supposed to machine the block with the cover but i installed the head and HG 1st torqued it down and then installed the cover so it wasnt suposed to be leaking from there. hell i only see wet under the temp sensors but it doesnt come from the sensors... omg pls opinion on this?

The head is flat straight across. It sits on top of the head and timing cover. The block now is lower than the timing cover.

Ok so i was on the phone yesterday with the machine shop that did my block work, and they told me as the head was warped, they shaved off from the head and only cleaned the block, they didnt take any material off. Whats bugging me now its that i dont know why its leaking from the HG. Do HG have some period to sit aswell and this happens or this shouldnt happen at all?
