Re: Cam timing question
I emailed the seller to check what model the cams were from, and he said the cams he has are marked 3BF, and he believes they came off a 88-90 model bike. Not sure if they will be OK ? I was looking to swap out the intake and exhaust ones as the ones he has are quite good.
Do you have the cams from thundercat ? Or valve lifter/shims ?

Re: Cam timing question
I bought a complete TCat, head (no cams) and a second without the casting (valves springs collects and buckets, there might be shims as well). I have a complete 3tj head with the cams at the end of the week.
The 3BF is the usa model, I dont think it had an exup. Exup allowed the tuning to be more at the top end taking advantage of the variable exhaust.

Re: Cam timing question
Sure...if these bits will fit and work for my early 1WG (non-exup) model, then great. PM sent, in case you miss this message. Thanks.
