Will you be taking the car back to the same RR when you have done the cams Pete ?

Did you have a flywheel figure from the last RR session ?

Thats what i thought paul but tony (local tuner) says out of the thousands of times he has done it on rollers theres usualy little or no point in changing from what the manufacture recomends as theres no real gain or the gains in power looses torque
