re-ground cam

[logger]

Does anybody know if you re-grind a cam to an aftermarket spec. if you have to adjust or buy new shims >

You have to get oversize eccentrics to offset the loss of lift you'll get with a reground cam.

Where is a good place to get these from ?

So do you know what you have to do >

nothing. just make sure your valves still clear your pistons

re cams

What are you serious ? you do not have to buy new shims as these will be cams ground close to an aftermarket grind .

[matt]

Hydraulic valve adjustment = no shims.
