Re-profiled are standard cams with re-ground profiles. Blank cams are completely new (generally) aftermarket cams ________________________________________ www.bridgecraftmotorsport.co.uk |

Depending on spec! Engine mods and management. No none standard cams will run 100% without being set up correctly.________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

There are a few different options to be honest. There are a few people iirc running Kent PT81s and me and jammapic are running catcam 3107s both sets are as big as you can go on standard pistons but your going to need cam timing and mapped for full performance ect...________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Speaking from first hand experience get someone that knows what there doing to install them and set them up properly , or you to will be making countless threads about your engine not running properly like me !!________________________________________ Old pugs don't die they just get faster |

I tried the pt82 in a spare 6 we had just see if would work, rang like bag of s**t, I do remember pt80s ran perfect and pt81 where OK but didn't run dead right. |

PT81's are about the max you can go on standard pistons.  And that's only if the head hasn't been skimmed. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |

Some real s**t info in here chaps! Pt80s, pt81s will not fit and time in properly in a standard engine, I know people do but there's too much lift at TDC, especially on skimmed heads. I'm guessing the catcam won't fit either, in fact I can't even see it listed on there site? The 4903106 looks to be the 'biggest' cam you'll get in safely. I highly recommend you have a read through this topic http://www.306gti6.com/forum/showthread.php?id=104146 ________________________________________ www.bridgecraftmotorsport.co.uk |
