M_R_205 5 1 Cars Posted February 25, 2007 there has been a lot of chat on here about what number pulleys work best on the inlet and the exhaust cams, however im completely confused, and due to my lack of knowledge cant figure it out... anyway i was intending to use standard cams due to the lack of cash but due to circumstances i have just scored about 400 quid.. therefore im going to buy some, however i dont have a clue what to get, basically i have a pug mi16 thats going to be running on R1 carbs and a 4-2-1 manifold (home made), it has a big valve head (36.5 valves), lightened and balanced bottom end and f-wheel, what cams would you guys fit.. also as my budget dosent stretch to vernier pulleys, what number pulleys would you recommend fitting to each cam?? and finally as this engine isnt going into a gti, its going into an xs there is no fuel pump feed to take my fuel pump off, what should i use, i was thinking of finding a swicthed live off the ignition barrel, what do you guys think??? cheers in advance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richie-Van-GTi 74 2 Cars Posted February 25, 2007 for the fuel pump Id take a switched live off ignition running to a relay that has another switched live from coil negative so pump will only be on when engine is firing. Much safer if you stall/crash etc etc. I have no idea about the cams. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baz 421 Posted February 27, 2007 PM PeterT, he's doing some good deals on his cams atm, can use std 2/4 pulleys with and offset woodruff key if needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
