i dont really want to do all those stuff.. is there any other way? i was told by a guy at a dyno shop that it will be ok.. just set the cam gears to 0, 0. is it true?

Sure. Head being milled, big lift camshafts, shallow valve relief pockets....**** it, be lazy and listen to your "buddy."

Why do people.. tell you out right, they dont wanna do it the correct way, yet .. their buddy said it'd be ok..
lol

Listen.. you could be fine setting them to 0/0.. However when you go to tune or adjust your cam gear timing, you wont know the correct clearences, therefore you wont be able to max the power of the cams because you'll be worried in your head, if your about to slap a piston or a valve..

keep in mind a rule of thumb , and this doesn't apply to big *** cams, like the pro2's or bcV or m24's anything like that, but dont seperate the gears by more then 4 degrees.. since your not going to do it the right... i'll try and help you the best.. but when you start making power.. and want to adjust it more.. just remember.. you might able too, or you might be towing your car home..
