Using a degree wheel to degree in your L series cams

Pete,

for some reason my sprocket didn't come with that chart. Thanks for posting yours as it will add more valuable info to this great thread.

Hi all,

 

In post #23 on Page2, Ian says he got a Rebello cam stamped with "63DI" on the back

In post #24, Paul says he called Rebello and was told to set the cam between 0.010" & 0.020" advanced

 

 

I have the same "63DI" cam from Rebello.

FYI I've got a 2949cc L28 in my 240Z (L28crank, L24rods, 89mm flat top pistons, 0.6mm nismo headgasket, + big valves & head work by DR)

 

DR told me to set my cam up with between 0.035" and 0.045" total at valve overlap

Not knowing any better I was going to shoot for dead in the middle of those two: 0.040"

 

 

Is Paul explaining the same thing I'm asking about to Ian, but in a different way by measuring a different number?
Or, in other words, am I asking a dumb question?

 

 

Thanks in advance,
