   Hi people...
   
   Does anyone know how to fit a cam to a VTR?
   
   Or better still, would anyone be interested in coming to me and fitting one??
   
   I have the cam and I will get a head gasket... Let me know cheers, and how much will you charge to come and fit both parts? I have a mate who can do it but I wanna see if I get a better deal

   if you dont know how i wouldnt attempt it yourself m8, and you'll need a headgasket kit not just a head gasket, and also a vernier pulley to get the timing rite, not really worth camming with a standard pulley,

   gains will be pants without 1 m8, plus it helps alot getting it timed rite for a good idle, youlll never get the full potential of a cam with a a standard pulley, ive jus bought a gasket set of ebay myself about 5 mins ago, 26 posted, got my vernier and fitted my s1 rallye inlt las weekend, just waiting for casm to arrive now
