I don't have one and the Buddyclub distributers in UK/Europe are being less than helpful!

Would anyone be willing to email any of the literature that should of come with them?

Cheers in advance!

 

to lousy customer service.

bump for you.

 

Anyone able to help?

Ive found this stuff, need some data on the actual setting up of them though? Ive been led to understand that they should of come with some data regarding basic settings (before tweaking) for the cams to run. i.e not TDC 0 degrees but advanced/retarderd? I may be wrong of course! But im severely doubting they run standard timing!

Cheers for any assisstance in advance!

 

Here you go

 

exhaust centerline 110 BTDC
intake centerline 96 ATDC

i've yet to see any cam manufacturer included a "recommended cam gear setting" sheet. it would be nice, but i don't think that they exist. i think its safe to assume that most, if not all cam manufacturers expect the buyer/user to tune his/her motor after the cam install. i mean, it is 08'. and to completed honest, that paper is supplied with the cam. all the information needed to degree the cams are supplied. g/l

 

Hi everyone the F/L IN 102 and EX 104, so do I need to lock the rockarm in vtec mode? or degree in the cam in the non Vtec lobes? and Which one or Pri or Sec rocker arm?

 

Hi, Can you tell me how you get the In 96 and Ex 110? because I tried so many times still can't degree corretly the cams.

 

does anyone know the cam timing settings for the cam gears on the spec iv camshafts

 

If the 96* Intake and 110* exhaust are correct and there hasn't been much if any milling of the head or decking of the block and a 3 layer headgasket is being used, you would install the cams at +2 Intake and 0 exhaust (that's CAM degrees, not crank degrees). Then you'd start tuning on a dyno from there for best power.

 

thanks

 

where did you get this info from

 

It's just math that you use to install any camshaft as long as you know the centerlines. It's what you start with when checking clearances and tuning on the dyno.

Stock cam intake centerline = 98*
Buddy Club IV = 96*

so to equal stock centerline you have to add 2 degrees = +2

Stock exhaust cam centerline = 110* and so does the Buddy Club IV cam so no correction is needed and you start at 0* on the cam gear.

 

 

sorry but i cant find these stock vtec centerline for years...Where did you find them bro?

 

I didn't find them per se, I just used what Patriot posted in post #7.

 

If the head has been milled say .008" how would this affect the cam gear settings?

 

It wouldn't. You'd need .040" off before cam correction is required.
