  • List your problem with your cam...

    Anyone who has had a problem after installing a cam post here... Post what it was, what you think (or know) caused it and what you could do to prevent it. Also state the year of your car...
    Like we all know of magnus' knock problem, which I am not even sure how related the problem was to the cam (Magnus???). I am deciding if it is even worth it.... Thanks..

    I installed my cam with 0 problems. It is probly because it is a very mild cam but it is very friendly.

        I mean, not idle or gas problems but actual repairs and problems that were caused by the cam.

                I have had no cam problems at all. Install was great, valvetrain stayed stock. All I have now is a very nice idle, more top end power, and 25 more hp at the wheels.

                I think most of my driveability issues are related to the ported TB which was done shortly after the cam install.
