Are the camshafts brand new Shane? Or were they run in that engine previously?

I think they have been run Doug, but don't quote me on that. Probably best to just do it anyway I guess

Exclamation AVCS Profile

Ok does anyone know what kind of AVCS profile and the subsequent Cam sensor that goes with these Cosworth Cams?

The AVCS profile does not match ADM (small keyways) or JDM (fins)

Any thoughts - are they a non AVCS Cam?

It may be (lucky me) an engine out job and new cams.

So camshafts are for cable throttle JDM and sensor will not work!

Somewhat annoyed.

Email off to cosworth to see what my options are.

I would suggest less aggressive cams are going to be ordered but this is going to take at least a month I think to get sorted.

Sad panda today

Shit ... feel for you Shane.

Well at least if you get new cams the question of whether they have been broken in gets answered ...

I saw the car sitting there this morning looking very much like a sad panda.
Hopefully no more hurdles after this!
