Cam timing question! What is my tolerance? Ok so im degreeing my cam right now and i found it to be at 110.25* ICL. The cam is to be installed at 111* ICL per the cam card. Now i know there are times were you can have + or - 1*. Is this the case?
Any advice is appreciated
Thanks

unless you have a hellish big diameter wheel...I don't know how you can distinguish 1/4 of a degree.
Generally if it's out of whack by 3 or 4 degrees...I would dial it in...otherwise call it good.
Does your card have valve events at .050 listed? Like JPH said this is better checking point. Asymmetrical lobes will change the c/l reading
