Hi guys, got a quick question regarding cams and timing.
I've got a set of Newman 200spec cams ready to go in my Fiesta ST and just wondered about the timing. I was always under the impression that they'd have to be timed correctly due to the longer duration and higher lift but a couple of people I've spoken to have mentioned that they'd just use the standard settings that Ford do with the standard engine, so who is right? The people saying they'll need new timing settings or those saying they'll just drop right in on default timing so long as I'm not changing the pulleys?
And while we're at it, if anyone in the north can recommend a place/person to fit them then let me know, best price I've had so far is JamSport in Northampton at £180
