1972 Dodge Colt
Spent a good deal of time on the cam.
With no Cam Card, it was a little confusing and time consuming logging what seemed like a million degree and lift numbers.
I did figure out that I had the wrong pill in the timing gear from when I ran the engine years ago.
I ended up with a 8 degree part.
I had a 4 degree part in there before which moved the intake centerline higher than the cam called for.
Found a set of good steel retainers, locks and springs to set the head up after I lap some seats.
I have an old Yother spring height micrometer and spring pressure gauge that makes it easy to check the set up.
