82032, AEM's New 5 bolt cam gears, they look cool
Posted by powellds, Oct-20-04 07:53 PM
What does everyone think about AEM's new design? I heard they cleared up the problem about the timing marks being off. What should I go with AEM cam gears, or Crane, Or Unorthodox. I want to save money too, those damn unorthodox gears are pricey, will the Crane or AEM gears be just as good overall for the price?

Eh, I haven't had a problem with my old-style AEM 3-bolt ones yet. I'd rather have at least 4 bolts holding the sprocket in time with the cam, but whatever. I crank those bolts to make sure it doesn't slip. With these cams, if the exhaust cam was retarded by 20 degres at the crank (10 degrees at the cam) I may grenade the whole damn engine, so I have to be careful.

I think that mod money is better spent elsewhere.

Haha, thanks D.

No matter how many bolts you have, I recommend taking the gears apart and putting red lock tite on the bolts before you install them.
