switching cam towers

Postby grasshopper » Sun Dec 10, 2017 5:17 pm

Hi all. Is it possible to switch cams and cam towers from one head to another same series head without having to re shim cams? My performance cams are properly shimmed (proper clearences),,and I want to move them from one head to another,,,

No, you only change the gasket and you have to reshim
