Judson and Tim,

Cams might be open for the little JH.

BMW's are pulling a scam in IT right now. Their factory shop manual has no cam specs, so, some have taken that to mean that cams are free. As such, two weeks ago at CMP a stock BMW cylinder head and cams were lying on the tech table when you check in.

Guess what? The top two BMWs in the SE didn't run at CMP. They went home. So, something is up.

So, a cam with the same duration, that is listed in the manual, but good lift might could be used. A 104 would probably get the job done and basically mimic (close enough for old car specs) the JH cam profile but give better lift.

All for the future. Right now I just want to get this thing started, the suspenion aligned, and out driving about!
