Does anyone know by how many degrees, a 202 cam would be retarded. If one was to set it one tooth out.
Cheers.

While on this topic of 202 cams... should i advance my camshaft on my 202 for use with gas? I am going to use a 186 cam , as my 202 cam is way too big and has to come out... and i read somewhere that a 186 standard grind is very suitable for gas ?

Thanks vintageholden. But I wasn't meaning the keyway. I was meaning one gear tooth of the cam gear(not multi keyway crank gear). I'm guessing it's going to be around the 15 degree mark. But I want to know for sure.
Handgunner, you should start your own

Adv. cam timing will give more down low, less up top
Retarted cam timing will give less down low and, more up top.

You cant use a 186 cam in a 202. The rod bolts will hit the cam, unless its actually a 202 cam in a 186.
