Default B20 build

image.jpegMy big B20 build is now well under way. I secured a pass to put it together in the kitchen which at this time of year is very welcome. Last weeks challenge was to get hold of a new crank pulley as the guy balancing my bottom end components had a good laugh at the old steel one. A friend who runs a historic racing engineering company has been working over my b20 e head for me. We had it on the flow bench this morning and using his fancy computer programme we were able to put in figures for a whole range of cams. I'm going to opt for the KG10 from KG Trimning. The computer print out is predicting 140 horses with good low down torque being the thing I'm really interested in. I'm wondering whether any of you have any experience of using a vernier cam timing setup? Do aftermarket cams from companies such as Trimning come marked up so that you can make use of volvo's line the dots up on the gears approach?
