DOHC parts list for midnightbear

[reiketsutsukigami]

yea you need to pick up isaurios gears btw i think i mentioned it in the list but the hyundai gears dont match our belts different teeth shape and size or you can get the sonata oil pump and bottom sproket but thats more of a pain then its worth.

p.s. im using and evo 8 belt with evo 8 adjustable gears not too tight of a fit if you ask me but ehh who knows.

Do you know if the evo camshaft will fit the sonata head? Not sure about that since the evo ones have a more agressive timing.

yeah like i said it works and yes you need the adjustable cam gear at least one. But best fit and for better durability on the long run. The 94 galant gs is the best choice for the setup. I did a lot of research since i'm crosing over to the 4g64/63T platform

Dang isaurio i was just thinking of asking that.

[dGALANTc]

so let me get this right if you run the sonata cam gears the 94 gs belt will work? you wouldnt need the adjustables? i always thought you needed at least 1 adjustable to time it properly.

[reiketsutsukigami]

adjustable gears will make your life easier and you can pick them up for cheap enough on ebay and evo cams , springs, and retainers all work in the sonata head im running stock evo 8 cams w/ bc springs and tit retainers for the evo 8.

[reiketsutsukigami]

and no you cant run the sonata cam gears the size of the teeth on the belt wont fit.

[reiketsutsukigami]

not to mention the evo i/m will also fit the sonata head.

[spdracr]

From my research iirc both i/m's are identical

As a matter of fact I have both and I could get side to side pics for reference of needed.

not to mention the evo i/m will also fit the sonata head.

So is the sonata cams, valves and springs good enough to run with low psi boosted or would i still need to upgrade them also as for my future plans are to be boosted, but that's far future.

[Isaurio]

Question is can the evo oem camshaft fit the sonata head?

and no the i/m are different spd the evo one is shorter by a lot you can't fit a stb with the sonata and yes i currently have evo 8 OEM camshafts in my sonata head. and djah yes theyre fine for mid range psi like 8-15psi is fine with the stock sonata head youll get more out of it with upgrading to evo parts but whatev.

yes i got negged on clug3g for sayig the same thing. Isuario is correct. think of doing a t-belt job its a pita the first time trying to get everything tight, but now you just went and put on a belt that is meant for a block 6mm shorter than yours hmmmm well this puts alot more stress on the belt than necessary. So why not just go for the correct belt for little price difference. But in the end it could be cheaper, more stress on belt= belt failure= possibly motor damage.

I was only able to compare them through pics only since I didn't have them in hand but now I could look at them side by side

So u r saying the 94 gs belt is the better route, right ??

I would say so, because the tensionor is used to tension up the slack.. so as long as thats working as it should. Personally, I would rather have my belt split 4 teeth and have it run like crap versus breaking and causing a total loss of engine lol...

if you can get the "right" 94 gs belt then definitely go with it but i got 4 diff belts from autozone and advanced and they fked up or something cause not a single one fit so i ended up going with the evo one witch honestly wasnt all that tight slides on and off without much more struggle then the stock belt had but im going to be going to the gates evo8 belt soon just to be on the safe side for strength.
