I have just found a couple of pages with information about the cams , trouble is they seem to be very cam dependent as they are on cars , you really need to know exactly what race cam you have , is there any numbers on it , then you might find to check it you need 2 dti gauges and check to specification .

Just 2 pages to look at , will help if we can
