Cam chain rattle

[Gav]

Did my cam chain last year with an open chain DIY rivet link one.  Most difficult part was finding a cam chain rivet tool.  Ended up improvising  a little with a universal riveter from machinemart. Wasn't ideal but managed (with a bit of patients), to knurl over the posts  securering the link without squeezing it too much creating a tight spot.  ended up fitting and removing the cams several times afterwards, trying to line up the timing marker dots. Kept putting the exhaust cam in one tooth out...that was annoying!!! Was my first time doing it lol  but got there in the end and totally rewarding job once you hear that smooth engine without rattle :-)
