Default degreeing cams b16

im looking to do this at the moment and trying to get a base for tuning.

[colour=olive]Email i sent to skunk 2;

I have a set of skunk 2 stage 2 tuner series cams and skunt 2 valve springs and retainers along with adjustable cam gears. The head has been milled down by .040 thou (1mm) and i was wondering if you could give me some cam gear adjustments to get it some where near before it goes to the dyno for full adjustment.

Reading up on HT they say that for every .012" you skim you will need to advance the cams by 1 degree to put it back to stock and the skunk 2 catalogue says the cams should be advanced by 2 as per pic below


so by my calculations my cams will need a 3.33 degree advance to get them to stock then another 2 degrees to align with skunk2's recomeneded timing. Seems simple enough to do (he says lol)

Also could the cams being out of tdc (due to skim be a reason for compression to be a little down?

Cheers
