I Have a WebCam "something" camshaft installed in my 1.8L Ljet engine. It was converted to Dual Carb Webbers years ago. Going back to the orginal Ljet fuel injection. Has anyone had luck converting back to the orginal fuel injection, BUT still using a carburetor type camshaft?

Very few camshafts have the vacuum signature needed for the stock FI system to be effective. I worked for years to develop a cam that was effective with FI and finally came up with a solution, my 9550 and 9590 cam profiles.

Most carb cams open the intake valve way too soon, some twice as fast as the stock cam and that makes for a very effective carb cam, but very inadequate stock FI cam.

Yes, go to my forums to get the details on camshaft sales.
I handle them much differently than anyone else as I must talk to you personally and walk you through an entire presentation about the valve train prior to the sale.
Unfortunately I only do this once every 3 weeks.
