preeeetty sure you wont get any worthwhile gains from fiddling with the cam timing on a single cam mate. i'd dial it in as per the spec sheet you got with the cam and leave it at that.

True that IMO. i put a rajab unit on mine and it had a TX2 and no matter where we adjusted it. It made the most power set as standard. Wish i knew that before i spent time and money fitting it and trying to tune it. Only to return back to standard specs.

It helps to dial in a aftermarket cam. So it worth it I reckon. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

now adays the advancement is ground into the cam at the factory of who ever produces them like crow, wade ect, no need for adjustable cam gears in rb30....just run standard timing gears
