I was in the middle of replacing my toothed belt and the bearings in the tensioner pulley. I just read this post and decided to check my cam sprockets and discovered that they are set at 115IN and 115EX when crank is at TDC.   Eng.#B74 12 1073 . I've had the car over a year and it seemed to perform fine,although it does smoke when coming down a long hill. Any suggestions on flipping sprockets over and setting them at 110IN and 110EX ?  Any ideas of how this change will affect the drive-ability or fuel mileage?Its easier to switch them now if it's worth the effort.

Thanks, Bill
