The locking pin is super cool! I love them, and no more worries about them slipping..... Quality is top notch!

Now my only question is whether or not they will fit under an uncut valve cover.....

 

They sure do look nice!

 

whats the pricing on these guys?

The Shoulder Bolt should be tightened until it is snug with a 3/32" allen wrench. The main bolt should be tightened to 24 ft. lbs. (manufacturer's setting). The four locking bolts should be tightened to 14 ft. lbs. with a 12 point 8mm socket. It is recommended that blue Lock-Tite should be applied to all bolts.

Don't get intimidated, he's really a ***** inside. He's twice my size and I could probably whoop his ***.

 

he's also the guy who installed Apex'i N1 dampers at the Expo using simple tools and a coleman lantern

hahaha. I'm still working on the t-shirts. (number customer for the month gets a free t-shirt with their name on it )

 

does anyoen know were to find these

 

Yup, but you'll first need use of a time machine.

 

Yeah, these have been off the market for a LONG time. Too bad, because they were awesome.

 

After seeing you in person at Expo, "***" and "whoop" should not be in the same sentence with "twice my size."

 

Ahh, this explains the onslaught of PM's and phone calls (they go in fazes about every 6 months).

I'm no longer selling these (in fact, I'm no longer selling anything!) , and ST Corsa is either doing just Ferrari/Lamborghini work or out of business. The owner/inventor claims to have a patent and doesn't want to do anything with it. Find something else

 

I've been trying for the longest time, to getting him to produce them again. They are a big hit, and they are an awesome piece of work. I see there is now a partition trying to get him to make them again. since Im an "insider" i think i might be able to get him to make a few. i will update this post when i find out.

 

one thing i noticed is its quite difficult to insert the locking pin whenever you adjust the settings, it ate up a lot of time during my dyno session

 

Any pictures???

 

^^^ Here ya go. Taken from Revscene fs post...

I would be curious about balance and what effects this may have on the cam journal near the timing belt... if any... just curious.

 

My guess would be no effect. The timing belt puts on alot more force than that little pin on a cam gear.

 

good point...

 

Ha!!!

I remember these...I used to sell them back in the day at Acura.

Good stuff...OG
