Datsun Camshafts & Valve Timing - A MUST READ!

(1/4) > >>

Lurch:
Guys,
This is a MUST READ topic for ANYONE interested in selecting a performance camshaft for their L series engine.
Baz from Datsport was kindly given permission to reprint this on his website for all us fortune people!
It does go through the basics at first, but I found it refreshing to re-read it all again.
I suggest you only read it a few chapters at a time to let the info sink in...

Enjoy ;)

--- Quote ---It is an ABSOLUTE NO-NO to remove the cam towers from the cylinder head because it is nearly impossible to restore correct cam bearing bore alignment after they have been removed.

I have heard this before also. I think its important to point out. I've seen a couple of members recently showed pics of engine heads with no cam towers on them.

Can anyone else verify this?

I have been watching Ztherapy's tuning videos and he also mentions not removing the cam towers for the reasons mentioned above
