dun no mate. what cams? is that the manufacturers recomendation?

put the degree wheel on the crank. (lined up etc etc)

ie: o degreese on the wheel lined up with the orange mark on the pully ,the first mark=top dead (0deg)turn it till

eg:

(as per above specs)

:7 degrees before top dead centre on the degree wheel. with a dial guage on the no1 inlet cam valve bucket...

adjust the cam till it starts to open it. etc etc.

basicly so you achieve the desired timing.

cheers.

to have it more acurate you need a setting that gives you a 50thou lift @ ..degrees etc.. if that makes any sence.

if you dont know what im crapping on about id recomend you get a mechanic to do it for you as you can run into problems easily...
