82074, What do I set corwer 2's at on the cam gears? Posted by powellds, Oct-21-04 04:55 PM
Hi, I recently replaced my whole top end with goodies and was just wondering what I should set my Crower 2's at on the cam gears. Should I advance or retard the timing on the intake. I know to leave the exhaust alone, but the car just has no power right now.

Have you redlined it? Big lumpy cams move all the power up top. it'll feel slow as shit below 2000RPM.

Play around with it till it doesn't run, then turn it back a notch. Thats the sweet spot.

I ran mine (crane 12's) -4* all the time. You can retard just the exhaust cam, it won't hurt your torque quite as much, but if you retard them both, you'll get a little (2-3 hp maybe) up top.
