Yes, get cam gears so you can adjust the cams properly for tuning....and valve lash should be set to specifications set by the manufacturer. The cams should come with a sheet that tells you what it needs to be at. Otherwise call crower or check their website for the proper specs.

 

Talk to you tuner, now a days tuners won't even touch the cam gears because the small gains you see, over the amount your paying for the tune.

 

thats true

 

forgot to add that i am a tuner lol sorry i have heard of people tuning the idle w/o cam gears and this is on boost to
