anyone know if these are possible? Just picked up a 248 Exh cam.

All the templates/how-to's are for dual timing chain pre 1998 240sx's.

Thanks

What? All KA cam gears are dual chain, period.

I am pretty sure my 1998 has a single row timing chain. Maybe it's dual, that would be great.

The upper chain that drives the cam gears are dual chain.

JWT makes adjustable cam gears for the KA.

Or you can make your own. Heres the link:

Did you even look at those pics at all in the link you sent? Dual chain. All the way.

Cool...so I only have to worry about moving the oil plug in one 'bearing' right and everything else is the same?

What about the 8 teeth CCW vs 4 teeth thay talk about with the 98's.

I don't want any surprises when I pop to cover off next weekend.

Thanks

The 95-98 cams are all the same, so your only issue if swapping earlier cams into a 97-98 head is the oil plug.
