Hi all. I'm after a performance cam and pulley, either a piper 285 or similar. Just rebuilding my engine. Thanks

Thanks. I've emailed him a week ago and still haven't heard back from him. I will try again.
If your in a hurry your better off using engine/dynamics.com and getting a catcam to similar spec as mike is going through a rough patch at the moment

Thanks, are the reprofiled one OK to use or are you best having the new blank ones.
Best off with new blank cam and catcams only do new blank camshafts
What's the 285 alternative in catcams?Originally Posted by turbo ted
I tried the cam guide on here but my phone didn't seems to work with it.
The ED spec?
Are verniers overrated?
look in the cam wizard but we had the bb cat cams which is very close
might be 5500237 cat cams made for bb
An adjustable pully is a must in my opinion
True, but how many people in the real world actually change it after the initial set up?An adjustable pully is a must in my opinion
How far out is the oe? I know for a fact once I set it up, I'll never have the interest in adjusting it, I'm far to lazy.. 😂
An aftermarket cam will always benefit from a verneir as you can never be sure if its been ground to the exact point as a standard one.
I have fitted a performance cam before and fitted the standard wheel and found it to be 4deg out, even if you have no intention of changing the cam timing at a later date its ideal to get it right when you fit it.
I would fit a vernier all the time just to be sure it is how it should be or how you want it
Before you buy a pulley measure the cam......... mine was 114 degress so I left it at that.
