I am replacing the cam dowel with an offset dowel and need some help with how to accomplishing the task. I believe it is as simple as:
1. Take a punch and knock out the current dowel from the backside of the cam face.
2. Replace with the new offset dowel making sure the offset part of the dowel is to the right if looking at it from the front of the engine.
3. Drill new holes to elongate the current ones in the cam sprocket.
4. Attach cam sprocket and install the cam into the engine block.
i have searched the threads here and can’t find anything about “how to”. I have looked in Jake’s book to no avail. I am surprised there is nothing documenting this considering most folks choose to run an offset dowel for cam timing. I am also surprised that there aren’t cam sprockets available with the elongated bolt holes to accept the differing offset dowels.
Thanks in advance for your help.
