Did the search and didn't get what I was looking for so here goes. I have a Cam that has the "yellow" advance/retard keyway installed. What degree is the yellow? Just curious.

Thanks much.
 
My set that I bought in the late 80s. I believe the yellow would be 4 degrees.

I do not know for sure, but I imagine that they would be 1,2,3,4,5 cam degrees, making the yellow one 8 crank degrees. Remember, the LSA is in cam degrees; ICL & ECL are in crank degrees. Confusing isn't it....

Makes sense. I checked to see where the cam was degree in at and it kept coming in at 98.5 or 99. My guess is it should of been 106.
