Cam degreeing help me understand!
LOL, I should have read the whole thread before post 94.
Now you know why there are many of us who say NEVER EVER do the dot to dot send it method.
Can you imagine how HORRIBLE that would have performed going in that far retarded? If it didn’t bend the exhaust valves, it would have ran like dog poop.
How many cars out there underperform because the cam isn’t degreed correctly?? I’d say a bunch.
I’m not a big fan of advancing the cam, but I’d rather have it advanced. I never retard a cam past split overlap.
A retarded cam is the biggest power killer next to detonation I can think of.
Very cool you worked through it and figured it out. You are now a cam timing expert, and you’ll never forget what you learned.
As 318WR said, you can’t pay for an education like that.
