Didn't know that...thanks bro

For future reference-
B7 Belt: 106 Teeth
A6 belt: 107 Teeth

 

i thought you didn't need to change the belt unless you got a different head or something. I run a z6 cam in my y8 no problems.

Perhaps the A6 gear is bigger than the B7 gear? I dunno i'll ask bone

 

you use the b7 timing belt with an adjustable cam gear to fix the 1/2 tooth problem

 

why not use the A6 cam with the B7 gear if you don't wanna buy a new belt i don't see the cams being a differant diameter for the bolt holes and cam key.

 

88-95 cam gears are all the same.

B7 and A6 are EXACTLY the same.

So, Bone; will the A6 cam be 1/2 a tooth off, or is everything already timed fine? I ask this because I know that you have lots of experience with teh D's, and your statement about the gears being the same makes me more curious. I would like to do this to my boring D15 if it is that easy. TIA.

 

Bone ran an A6 cam in his d15B7. Stock its a half tooth off.

1/2 tooth advanced vs 1/2 tooth retarded

 

Thanks Bauley

 

i hear word of a writeup of the installation steps that bone did....is this true? where might i find it?

Are Y7 Y8 and Z6 cam gears all the same?

No the y8 is a 5 spoke lookin thing

 

So a y7 cam gear would work on a z6?

Is that all thats different that design? or do they have a different # of teeth?

 

im gonna put a d16a6 cam in my b7, what cam gear do i need

 

ok so wich way is RETARDED and which was is ADVANCED???
