Re: cam degreeing help
 

Terry, any update? Just wondering what you may have found. Unsolved mysteries really attract my attention. Just a note you can download the instruction to degree a cam off Comp. cams site, not that you're doing it wrong but it never hurts to reread the instructions. Good luck. Joe

Re: cam degreeing help
 

Have tried everything everybody has suggested with no results. I am degreeing exactly the way comp cams talks about. I have comp cams 4-7cam does that have to be degreed differently. I know I am getting tired of not getting this, been working on this for 2 weeks. I could have had my motor running by now.

The 4-7 swap does not reqire any different method to degree in. Sent PM Joe

Terry,
I would suggest you get another set of eyeballs to watch what you are doing. For some reason I remember having a similar problem a few years ago after a very long day. I dont remember what I was doing wrong but after a good nights rest it was a definite "DOH" the next morning. I am almost positive it was something I was doing wrong adding and subtracting numbers.

Re: cam degreeing help
 

If you get the same result by doing this you clearly built in a "mistake" in your doings..same as Bill K i had my moments when i just was too tired...

I want to thank all the racers for trying to help me, I got the problem straightened out.

Re: cam degreeing help
 

Well clue us all in, we all have been following this thread ......what was the problem ?

Re: cam degreeing help
 

The problem was when I did my first reading of the degree wheel it was right, but when I did my second reading I was reading it the opposite way so the numbers were always higher and almost always the same. I am right on now, tried different degrees just to make sure everything is working fine. Just a dumb mistake that I hate to admit to.

Dont feel bad we have all at one time or another done the same thing, there is alot going on at one time and its easy to get a bad reading. Its called the "school of hard knocks"
