Thanks for your response Ted.

OK, I'll have to see how much material the shop takes off the cam race to clean it up. Hmmm, I'll also have to account for any material removed from the bottom of the head to flatten it out, although it should be less than .005" And any material removed from decking the block...

How many thousandths of material needs to be removed overall before an adjustable cam gear is warranted? .010", .020", .030"?



>>>*At .020" we can correct with the .020" thicker head gasket, after that we determine the type of use. If low end is desired and it usually is with these, then we would consider adjusting at the gear....*EB


Is this gasket available in the "Turbo" application you sell?

I forgot to ask... Been a couple millings on my head, and I am sure I am a good 3-4* retarded now.
