Re: LT5 Assembly Project
Just something to ponder and engineers please verify my math....diameter of of the cam base circle is about 28.77mm and if I remember my high school math that makes the circumference 90mm....which means the one degree on the camshaft is 1/4mm?

Re: LT5 Assembly Project
360 degrees in a 90mm Circle would mean 1 degree=.25MM correct? I guess the point I am making is that it does not take much to move the cam a few degrees in reference to the crank.....
I am doing a novice write up on cam timinig....

Re: LT5 Assembly Project
This camdegree setup is genius; uses the plug hole as a stand and two dial gauges split off...

Re: LT5 Assembly Project
right paul, Hard to believe how small the adjustments are......D/s is done ended up at 113 and 108 locked down and loctited. With Jerrys torque bolts process, is very easy and does not seem like the cams move.....on PS I will mark the cams to see....
