Post subject:  Dialing in the RE-13

Gday all those wiley in the ways of the mini-Gods

I have finally got the engine back together and got it all bolted up. However how do I dial in the camshaft now I have it all together. The Triger belt drive has no adjustment in it therefore can I run the '13 "straight up" or do I have to do some massaging.

I am pouring over books and I am not really confident in getting it right. KC says check it at the valve - but will it be detrimental to the new motor if I do the RE-13 "dot to dot" for the run in and then play with it later on.

Your learned advice is appreciated...

Hooroo

Rob,
I use offset cam keys if they are not vernier ones.
Never had a problem with them, even running a 10* key once.
Karcraft sells a limited range.
RE13 cam I time in at 105-106*ATDC with a belt drive, but 103-104 with a duplex chain (as they stretch). :wink:

My belt drive needed a 6* offset key in to get it right with the RE13....
