  • Shane Pulido of Crower walks us through not only the "how" of properly degreeing a camshaft, but the "why" as well. The more effort you put in, the more precise your results, and Crower shows us how to be spot on, every time.

    For me youre kind of just throwing out numbers and not elaborating what exactly you're doing for people.

    3:37 Ok guys, so what they are NOT telling you is that after you get back to MAX cam lift watch the dial indicator and it will go backwards {lifter is on the down fall....Intake valve is closing} When you get to 0.50" on the dial indicator read that number on the degree wheel and add it to your first number then divide by 2 to get your intake center line. So basically your reading 50 thou before max lift and 50 thou after max lift.

    I use a piston stop to find t.d.c., between bearing clearance and crank dwell there's too much slop to be 100 percent accurate using a dial indicator. Bump it forward then back and split the difference will give you absolute t.d.c.

    The damn annoying and distracting background music. What's the point of adding music to a video that's supposed to be informative? Is it really necessary to have that stupid music in the background?

  • @majorkin19
    @majorkin19 4 роки тому +4

    you would think they would make a video explaining in depth how to actually degree a cam, no one understands something that was already done, the dots were already spot on, explaining the process in depth is what everybody came here for, so having a cam that's completely out of time and explaining the process step by every single step is what they want to see for example setting timing, where and how to adjust your piston stop, where is a ideal place to mount your pointer for the degree wheel, how to go about setting up your dial indicator etc, then explaining what the numbers mean and how to apply said numbers to the procedure etc, all this video showed was that the cam was already set and its ready to go

    Measuring the amount of degree the piston is at dwell/ sitting still and decide it in half you get TDC it don’t gotta be all that complicated.

    you should have shown them how you got your wheel on 0 tdc to start with. that will confuse newbies. you should have just let the wheel land on what ever random number, did your 50/50 math and showed you putting the wheel at zero

    • @Warrior_Resisting_Colonialism
