KA - In Memory of my Mom (Vincee) and best friend Michael J. Maring
#1801
I just received the best Christmas present possible!
KA will be completed with the GT3 cams and alot sooner than I thought. A friend in another part of the world, who I have not only conversed with but also done business with, revealed the way to make it happen. I simply can't believe it.
I can't reveal details at this time, but if permission is given at a later date I will.

Isn't the variocam advance limited by the variocam sprockets? I don't understand why the pistons are hitting valves unless the turbo sprocket advances the cam more than the GT3 sprocket. Are you using a GT3 variocam sprocket?
Edit: I guess degreeing in a cam that doesn't have a keyway and isn't marked "correctly" could be a problem.

The GT3 cam does not utilize vario lift. the GT3 utilizes vario timing.
The pointer markers on the GT3 cam are located in a different position than those on the turbo cam. Finally the degree of advance utilized on the GT3 is different than utilized on the turbo.
I believe the timing advance is controlled by the codes in your ecu.
You simply won't believe the solution. All I can say is Porsche was advanced way beyond their time.

Glad you worked it out, if you do ever need them again for some reason give me a shout!!

I attempted to get back to you yesterday after I received the information. I left two messages. I greatly appreciate your willingness to help.
What I spoke to you about yesterday is on hold until we test the solution given to us. After I found out about the solution, I had the part shipped out to S Car Go Racing by private jet. We now have our hands on it.

So where do we go from here? We can use stock 996tt cams, a GT3 exhaust with a 996tt intake, use GT3 cams placing 996tt pointers on the cams (may have to modify as in tone down GT3 intake lift and duration) or find someone who already modified a turbo cam.
We hope to arrive at a decision in a few days.

A modified exhaust cam is not our problem. The problem is the intake cam. I don't believe they have anything on the intake. I don't know of anyone who has successfully modified the intake with a profile that allows a fast enough ramp down to prevent the piston from smacking the valve.

Sharkster,
Have you installed your powerglide transmission yet?
