anyone built a 2.0L with D-jet using one of these cams?
Like the results? Hated it? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |

There is no cam researched as thoroughly for D jet than my 9550..
QUOTE I know some of the things Jake has done to solve his lifter issues and I'd be surprised if any of the cam manufacturers were matching that level. Remember that Elgin doesn't build Type 4 engines- :-) Cam grinders in general don't touch engines- they rely on numbers to choose a grind- I don't. You won't beat the 9550 in a D jet application and you won't find a cam/lifter set up thats as well engineered in compatibility as what I offer. Read this page to see what I went through for 18 months to back up this statement. http://www.aircooledtechnology.com/lifters.htm#Spintron |
