BELT GUIDE
SECURELY
HOLDS DOWN THE LENGTHY EJ TIMING
BELT TO PREVENT PULLEY
Horizontally
opposed engines combust structurally
at 180 degrees; increasing the
chances of the camshafts not
performing at their maximum
lift. Because of this, installing
high lift camshafts in these
engines may create unnecessary
belt vibration leading to the
pulley spinning off the rotating
assembly. Without the pulley
in its rightful place, the valves
and the pistons are guaranteed
to make contact in this situation.
The manufacturer had created
a component to eliminate this
costly damage, called the belt
guide. However, this belt guide
is constructed from thin sheet
metal which lack strength and
rigidity with overall attributes
that simply cannot securely
maintain the belt and pulley
at times.
Tomei Powered has constructed
a beefy belt guide cut straight
from aluminum with an extended
length to securely apply more
tension to the timing belt.
This product comes in handy
when immediate changes in torque
are experienced by the engine,
eliminating belt whip. The Anodized
surface creates a smooth and
precise belt track as well.
