ring this guy www.theengineshop.info

He gets his cams made for the engine that I had put in mine.  He gets them from a place in Farmbrough, kent, Can't remember the name might be newman cams.

A mate of mine has just got a newman cam for his mk3 8v and it seems pretty good. Especially at top end where the 8v normally lacks power.

Id hazard a guess at take rather than give.  :grin: Also have you thought about getting a vernier to finish the job off properly. Without one your never gonna be able to fine tune the timing.

i'd think you'd b lucky to make 155hp tbh, just a cam isn't goin to do much, and yer you will prob need an adj pully to time up preoperly!
