k im used to the normaly way of doin this but i now have a kent cam on my frst and im not to sure how to time this up[ whats the best way to time the top end up with the kent cam pulley?
thanks rich

 

?????

 

you need the kent timing disc that would have came with the cam to help find max valvelift/opening,you will also need a dial indicator to show true tdc,find out which cam you have and beg/borrow/steal a timing disc and instructions to suit.

 

oh rite i never got one when i ordered my cam, couldnt i just put the old cam on and time it up then put the kent on bac on?

 

no, to get the best from youre kent cam it must be timed properly.

 

but could i time it up like this temporarily untill i get the proper stuff?

No, or you'll probably bend something. Do it right or keep the standard one in until you've got the bits to do it properly.

I know that's not the answer you want to hear but it's the best way to do it.

 

where can i get the kent timing disc from then as they didnt send me one ive got the book that tells you stuff to do with your cam but never got a timing disc?

If it's supposed to be in the box, get onto Kent and ask for one.

Or, I believe this might be what you're after:

well the thing is ive had the cam on 4 about a year now and i didnt fit it one of my mechanic m8's done it and im sure we had this problem b4 and he just set it up 4 now and said about gettin one

 

In which case a fiver on ebay for a disc is peanuts, then you can get it timed up nice

 

yea i just brought one lol
