Fireman049 Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 I'm fitting a new Piper camshaft and its setting is 110 degrees. I've carried out the following procedure. Can anyone tell me if it's correct before I go any further? 1. Turn No.1 piston to TDC. 2. Fit timing disc and set to 'zero'. 3. Turn crankshaft to show 110 degrees after TDC. 4. Turn camshaft until No.1 inlet valve is fully open. 5. Fit timing chain and gears. Am I right?? Tom. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yaya Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 Hi Tom Yes it's correct, just be sure that you have the true TDC. http://www.burtonpower.com/tuning-guides/tuning-guide-pages/camshaft-fitting-timing.html Best regards Yaya Quote Link to post Share on other sites

peejay4A Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 Out of curiosity, how does one allow for valve clearance? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
