# How do the VTC's come off?

Posted by James (VE 5spd ) on September 22, 2004 at 14:24:36: I dont have my FSM with me at the apt here and I dont really recall how they're removed My brother found a VE today at the junkyard that's pretty much intact engine wise so I'm gonna have him get the VTC's for me if he can Dont they just unbolt from the end of the cam or something? Any special tools or large sized sockets needed? I'm also REALLY tempted to pick up the tranny from the 5spd and start hoarding them. Then I'd have three :o Replys: I believe its 9 on each side cover, but the bolts are side specific, kinda ..... MrGone (92se) 15:43:52 9/22/2004 (0) They do indeed just unbolt. It's getting to them that's the pain n/m Jeff92se (92se) 14:27:53 9/22/2004 (2) Dont you just need the valve covers and timing chain covers off? nm James (VE 5spd ) 14:34:36 9/22/2004 (1) Yup. The upper chain covers have like 10 tiny bolts each. Some are a pain RosenKen (93 SE 5spd) 14:57:41 9/22/2004 (0)
