Im getting all geared up to clay my motor, but i got a question, they say to advance your cams as far as you think your ever gonna go, then rotate your motor and re-clay.

just keep retarding it till its ok? or worse case senario go to a smaller cam?

b16 block
ctr pistons
gsr head
supertech valves
comp stage 3 cams

 

Well, advance the intake cam as much as you think it might see when you tune it, Then do the same for the exhaust except retard it as much as you think you will. For example i did +5 intake and -6 exahust because i foresee these as the maximums i will ever advance/ retard the setup.

 

cool, so if i advance as far as i think ill go and its too much, then just dont go that far

Exactly. I used +6 / -6.

Good luck.

 

in other words, don't go to far or you'll have to reclay it. And its a PITA in th first place. So just put it at some reasonable settings like +6, -6. You'll probably never even tune them that far but it gives you a good margin of safety.

Oh yeah....good 1/4 mile b16 low 13's in a EH...nice

 

just make sure u lock in vtec lobe when doing it.

 

I was going to say the same thing!
