#13911, "Fidanza Cam Gears... Any good?"


          

Here's a post on Fidanza Cam Gears from the Neon guys. Something that might be of interest if you were planning on buying them...

I read that post the other day. I would like to look at them in person before I bought them and I want 5 bolts instead of 3 so the AEM's are out of the question. Has anyone seen any other cam gears for the 2gnt besides those two?

Yeah same reason I didn't want AEM. Unorthodox cam gears are also 5 bolts but the most expensive of the batch. That's why I was happy to see the Fidanza's when they came out.

I like my new AEM's with the 8 mm hex bolt. I just have a small combo wrench and it's real easy to adjust. 5 bolts would also be a pain to adjust (especially on the intake cam gear). I think that a lot of times you get what you pay for, and if those guys have bad things to say about Fidanza gears, then I'd be wary.
