Cam/Adjustable pully
 

Hi to all,
I'm in the process of rebuilding my engine done the main/big-end bearings,new rings etc, i'v took a risk and ported my own head to gasket size and polished it up.:D
Does piper still make a Racing/fast road cam? and if so what do they cost?
What does the adjustable pully do in ref to power? and where do i get one from?.

Cheers
Andy

yeah they still do the cam, not sure on the price, cnhss1 did have some ajustable pullies for sale.

Ok
thanks for that

Theres no benefit to the vernier pulley unless its dialed in properly

lol :D

It may be shiny for the magpies

well thats just crap

LOL:rolleyes: :D

and on another note, i doubt piper actualy developed the cam on the RR, its only a regrind, so what state of tune was the engine in when it was decided that by advancing by 2 degrees would give max benefit, tbh the car needs to be run on the RR, then mess about with the cam timing to see what suits it best.

Its a wider duration cam by 14 deg's and as a result the full lift occurs 2 deg's out when used on the standard pulley. Its not been advanced as such.

By adjusting the timing normally a small improvement or loss will be noticed in either midrange or top end power.

If it was twin cam you have a lot more options coz you can adjust the valve overlap.

Cheers
